What do you propose we do? Are you going to give up the phone or PC you used to make your comment? Are you gonna stop using electricity? How about your car? Are you going to stop consuming products that come in boxes and plastics? What about your family, going to convince them to do the same? Or is it just enough to leave edgy comments slagging the scientists who did solve a problem created by modern life?
Fucking consumer brain. Buy local, go nuclear. It's that easy. Maybe you've already forgotten how much the air quality around the globe improved when covid hit.
God knows you can't image a world without your drop shipped temu shit.
Says the person who is using a phone or computer to make this dumbass comment.
This comic does apply here, but the dude popping out everywhere is Spice Hoarder.
Awe, what's wrong? Did I challenge your world view? You're literally unable to give up anything so you resort to attacking people who live more sustainable lives than you? Yeah I'm using a device that was manufactured, but I never buy new.
I buy local, my home is powered by nuclear energy, I use recycled electrons, and I always buy second hand.
But you couldn't image a world where people reject consumerism. You're so consumer brained you couldn't image there's a way to ethically exist in the modern world.
So instead of insulting me on my success, how about you tell me why you can't do the same?
You got a local, organic, sustainable, handmade phone or PC? Do you live in a cave? Do you only hunt and grow your own food?
I don't think they proposed an all or nothing attitude. We as individuals can do "something".
It's reduce, reuse and recycle.
Like the one you're replying to, my phone is a 6 years old flagship, bought it 3 years ago similar case with most of my electronics, I bought it used.
Got pretty old solar panel, little battery but meaningful capacity.
I'm no vegan but since I'm SEA-an majority of my diet is plant based anyway. And it's not enough to fully sustain myself but I do grow a few kitchen staple.
Use public transport, if none available then vote for whoever proposed it.
I know it's a drop in the bucket in grand scheme of things. But that's the extent me as normal individual can do and I'm content.
Yeah, I'm not unreasonable. I'm just doing my part.
Lost me there
Now don't tell me you're afraid of rocks.
Only those that dissolve my dna to produce electricity that's an order of magnitude more expensive than the one that can be generated from thin air or sunlight.
Oh brother, wait until you find out what sunlight is.
