    The less people - the less pollution. Everything’s going the way it should, relax.

        No, it’s nature’s self regulation. And every time humans intervene - the real shit happens. Just relax this time, for fucks sake.

      This is a bad take… Regions affected with mass migration, people without solid infrastructure, AC or clean water, people not able to move are in danger. They are not the ones polluting. Hypothetically you have 50% less people. Great. Think about who is still there and if pollution really is in decline then.

      Problem is we’re on our way to reach a point where even if we stopped all our GHG emissions, just the melting of the ice caps and thawing of the permafrost will be enough to create a self sustaining global warming event.

        If you’re talking about the Clathrate Gun hypothesis, that’s no longer considered relevant for the near-future climate crisis.

        It’s ok. The planet right now is much cooler than it used to be.
