    With the EPA being turned into a Pollution Protection Agency, I think at this point we just need to pull an Ozymandias and just fucking let the planet melt.

    Let’s light this house on fire and burn it to the ground and start over from the fucking ashes.

      If we let the planet “burn”, it will remain unhabitable for hundreds of thousands, maybe millions of years until natural proceesses capture the carbon, and the climate stabilize itself.

      We won’t be around to start over from the ashes. Quite possibily, no one will.
