The Biggest Gamble Ever

At the end of the Greta Thunberg debate the question was asked 'what do we have to lose?' The best anyone could come up with was that we might pay more taxes and Greta will always be a public figure.

I urge all of you to Google Koch Brothers and their part in climate change denial in providing huge grants to scientists to give us false data.

Imagine this. In 8 years time we find out we've been duped and the time has past when we can do anything about it. Our children ask why we did nothing and we reply 'well we didn't want to pay extra tax for nothing and Gretas life was gonna get awkward'...

Is it worth the gamble? Heads - a lower standard of living.... Tails the destruction of planet earth, maybe not for us but maybe our children, definitely our grandchildren.

It needs to be a world wide effort but I don't think you'll ever get that especially from the biggest polluting countries.

It would take a huge mobilisation. What are ww talking about really? We're talking about the man on the street excerting his political power as a voter on our politicians who are owned by big money.

The good news is we've done it before. Remember CFCs and the Ozone? We got them banned. We fixed a problem. It shows we can do it. That's positive stuff right there!

Not only did Koch help unleash countless metric tons of greenhouse gases from the earth, he was a key funder of climate change denialism, stiff-arming scientists in order to further plunder the earth he was destroying. Revelations in Christopher Leonard’s new book, Kochland, show that Koch played an even greater role in funding climate change denialism than we previously knew. As we careen towards a climate catastrophe that seems more and more likely to happen within the next 11 years, we can rightly pin a portion of the blame on David and his brother.

It's like they've been reading our forums.

What could be more cool than denying climate change? It's like the death defying act of smoking when it might give you cancer.
