The contradiction of conservatives is that by trying to conserve a way of life reliant on fossil fuels instead of conserving planetary health, they are driving enormous changes that will upend our societies… and the fossil fuels will run out anyway.

"AI could invent free renewable energy."

Or, y'know, we could deploy the stuff that works and is already cheaper than the fossil alternative, while doing the hard political work of figuring out how to pass the savings on to households, balancing the interests of shareholders and ratepayers.

Humans will NEVER colonize another planet. Never.

If we can’t even agree to do the minimum to keep Earth habitable, there’s no way in hell we’ll cooperate to make another planet habitable.

Imagine how fast global emissions could be falling if having an economy that centred human wellbeing rather than constant growth was allowed 🫠

(also a fair few of these countries have stagnant rather than falling emissions.....)

It might be true that the world needs to remove ten billion tonnes of CO₂ from the atmosphere every year but it’s never going to happen for many different reasons: technical, financial, social, environmental, governance, etc. If we don’t reduce CO₂ emissions, we’re screwed. That’s it.
Removing CO2 from atmosphere vital to avoid catastrophic tipping points, leading scientist says
10bn tonnes must be captured from the air every year to limit global heating to 1.7C, says Johan Rockström

Here's the other problem: as @climateactiontracker.org point out in the report Gates' staffers either didn't read or chose to ignore - the shifting projections from 'bad' to 'less bad' STOPPED SHIFTING after covid and MIGHT BE SHIFTING BACK TOWARDS MORE BAD

How about we shift from centre-right dweebs dishonestly trying to reframe our intentions and towards actually being honest with people about how renewable energy only makes your bills cheaper, cuts air pollution and cuts greenhouse gases if politicians actually directly tackle corporate power

It's tough to explain exactly how nutty this new report from fossil fuel industry consultant Wood Mackenzie is, but I'm going to try in a short thread.

As you can guess: 1 trillion barrels of oil is...............................A LOT

Arguing that ppl should stay on X to 'be part of the conversation' or whatever is precisely equivalent to all the Very Serious centrist nerds arguing we should lean into right-wing framing for climate advocacy bc the movement is losing momentum.

In both cases: it only helps the shift rightwards

We will never know the true economic value of the environment; it's a fool's errand. Nature's most important values are priceless, they can never be measured in dollars and cents, but they must be conserved.

The planet doesn’t care about where we take CO₂ out of the air, but it does care how we do it. Tree planting or forest restoration should not be used to offset fossil fuel CO₂ emissions because it doesn't work.
