    Don’t worry about it, it won’t be really bad until a couple of generations.
    And if we get self accelerating global warming, it won’t just be humanity that dies, but all life on earth. Because earth will become like Venus.
    So in a sense we win, and the joke is on life in general.

    Alternatively we could reduce pollution, but there are simply too many downsides, like clean air and better health and future sustainability, who the fuck wants that? Also I just bought stock in an Asthma company, and clean air would probably tank that stock.
    I think we should stick with what we do best, which is to destroy the earth to make money. Profits are good my friend, profits are very good.
