This is mildly infuriating but ruining the climate is very infuriating. So I understand the protesting and I hope we're gonna see a good second half of the race.

When you’ve done everything that’s reasonable, and no one in power listens, so have to become unreasonable. And people say, why can’t you just be reasonable?! 😕

Get elected and become a person in power then.

Because the corporations you are protesting are the ones who fund the campaigns necessary to get elected.

Make enemies with everyone and make sure nobody outside the fossil fuel industry will want to fund your campaign either.

Holy shit, why didnt we think of this before!!!!11!!

Hey! Everyone @woelkchen@lemmy.world just solved climate change!!!!!!

That's indeed a much better way to actually change anything than to glue yourself onto a bicycle track and make up stories about turning away trans viewers.

Yeah no shit sherlock, and it would be better still to not even get in power, but instead just wave your arms and magic away all the excess co2 in the atmosphere.

Carbon capture is an actual thing, not magic and Shell is working on that, including two projects in Scotland: https://www.shell.com/energy-and-innovation/carbon-capture-and-storage.html

BTW: The world's biggest CO2 emitter is China with a third of all emissions.

Okay, I refuse to believe anyone is actually this stupid, so I'm just going to disengage.
