    Where are these people who both care about climate change and also think that there is one magic solution to it?

    I’ve been trying to ignore this annoying ass post for days but it just keeps showing on my feed for some reason. Really hope we get a feature to hide individual posts in the future.

    After re-reading the phrasing, I realize it says “does not address climate change” which is fucking stupid because of course if I replace my gas engine car after it dies with an electric one then drive it for many years, I will have prevented a lot of emissions. If millions of people do that over the years, of course it does something to address climate change.

    And yes I know coal is still being burned. Maybe people who care about climate change could not be fucking morons who think in terms of gotchas and only focusing on the one thing they individually care about? Climate change requires many solutions, and I’d think we’d all know this by now.
