Doomer, born at 320 ppm with population at 3.3 billion, It’s the Overshoot, stupid. Humanity may be doomed, but we don’t need to lose our humanity.

I would like to see less cleverness (the signs were very clever) and more actionable steps that lead to real change.
How anyone can believe that weak, insincere, and directionless politicians can beat no-holds-barred fascist political thugs? This isn’t about a big tent or purity tests. This is about fighting to give the people power and not being beholden to the rich and powerful in a different way.
Progressive policies are unpopular. To the donor class to whom the establishment Democrats are beholden.
“The climate crisis will not be televised” So very true.

One silly “solution” after another. There are too many to keep track of.
This quote about sums it up.

“Of the various causes of collapse, the one most overlooked, and potentially the most harmful, is delusion – the capacity of humans to believe whatever they wish, regardless of the facts. A species that does not believe it is in danger is very unlikely to avoid it.”
I was on the “socialism will save us” hopium bandwagon for a while. This article clearly and concisely describes why socialism isn’t going to save us. Thank you for writing it.
Now we have both fossil fuels and the addition of these new energies with no lessening of our overall energy use. We can also throw in roads, parking, highways, farmland for livestock, lakes from dams, mining… We just keep expanding and destroying.
That‘s some 3D chess you’re proposing. The neoliberal democrats keep saying we need to run a centrist campaign and if they win, move the centrists left. That’s never how it works out. The democrats move to the right, and then the republicans move further to the right. We all get screwed in the end.
This is what passes for clean and renewable. It’s still so destructive to the environment. It’s neither clean nor renewable.
It’s the lead story here in Italy. Why not in the U.S.? There are many people in the big cities of Italy who support the flotilla.
Are you starting to see a similarity?
Same brain for 300,000 years. Same pattern of behaviors only now with a myriad of destructive technologies.
We can all thank Ezra Klein and his Abundance (of neoliberalism) Movement for this.
Our country is filled with fools. I’d be funny if it wasn’t so sad.
They have spent decades following the Powell Memo and have captured much power giving them control over governance and media. The opposing group needs to gain power back to have any chance of making a difference.
I look forward to seeing the results of the next generation of climate models. Hopefully, they won’t be as terrifying as I am imagining them to be.
He’s a scam artist with (for whatever reason) a huge platform. He scams the public with these overly complex and terrible rationalizations.

Free speech warrior Michael Shellenberger, of Bari Weiss’s fake “university,” retweets GOP Sen. Dave McCormick calling for the University of Pennsylvania to take “decisive action” against renowned climate scientist @michaelemann.bsky.social for reposting criticism of Charlie Kirk.
Thank you so much for doing this! I really got a lot from it. I believe I’m more of a Kate Dibiasky type of doomer.
He‘s been promoting this book for many months already. He worked the book into every interview he did for MSM and every talk he gave trying to connect it to form of resisting Trump. Like all savvy capitalists, you should never miss an opportunity to make money off of a terrible situation.
This is the third book that Mann has included a section on “doomists”. He seems to be the one trying to make money by being a whiny anti-doomer. I don’t believe his public reach is far enough for most people to care about what he has to say. Same with doomers. Nobody cares what we have to say.
If “Doom porn sells,” show me the money!
