Yes, obviously AI is emitting way too much. It shouldn’t even be producing 0.2% of global emissions, let alone 2%. My main grievance is that no one ever talks about improving industrial and agricultural processes even though they produce around 29% of emissions and 20% of emissions respectively.
I stopped believing in climate change as soon as I started hearing billionaires talk about how we all need to eat bugs and live in pods while they own multiple mansions each with multiple industrial sized AC units on massive plots of land while wasting enough food per day to feed 10 families with 9 people. Also I’m old enough now that I’ve seen several climate doomsdays come and go and the things they said would happen didn’t happen.
About 10 years ago the “climate experts” said that “no matter what we do, sea levels will rise 16 feet” by a point that we’ve passed and it didn’t happen
Did you know the mansion oprah owns in Hawaii is on a plot of land that’s bigger than central park in NYC? And she’s one of the loudest voices talking about how WE all need to reduce our carbon footprints.
“oh but they bought carbon offsets so it’s okay” no, it’s really common people like you and me that paid for that, because those fuckers get to write that off on their taxes, so in the end they didn’t actually pay to reduce any pollution, we did.
They’re never going to give up their mansions or their dozens of cars or their private jets. All this is bullshit to put restrictions on us. So until all these billionaires start practicing what they preach, I’m not going along with it anymore
