>>13744655This is the true blackpill of environmentalism that's 3 stages of iterative research deep and no one wants to touch with a 20 foot pole. The environmental problems you do hear about in mass media are pushed by lobbyists, functionaires and politicians to sell more of yourself away for their gain. Carbon and green taxes are huge untapped currencies. Green and BBB politics are misused to shoehorn more authoritative institutional powers and bureaucratic smoke into government.
No one cares about the huge patches of trash floating in the oceans. No one cares about the proliferation of plastic into all strata of the food chain. No one cares about the superfactories in Asia spewing so much pollution you have entire cities covered in thick smog and their populations suffering from chronic chemical poisoning. No one cares about the international landfills leaking and making land inhospitable for thousands of years.
I swear if the US wanted to do right by the planet, it would bomb China back into the stone age, genocide India into a graveyard the likes of which the world has never seen, force resettle all SEA inhabitants to Australia and prohibit anyone from coming or going to the islands, make the entirety of Central and South America coastline into a sanctioned UN militarized buffer zone, and release a genomic virus on the Aboriginals for good measure.
