With the tragic demise of environmentalism in its conversion to the corporate "green energy" industry, doomers have become the new face of environmental activism.
Doomers seek to preserve what's left for whatever is coming after the collapse of global industrial civilization.
There are about 100 things we can do to reduce our ecological footprint by a little.
But if we're honest about our base load impacts,
.. we'd know that 1,000 people doing these small things are wiped out by every 1 extra person.

Do you want to explain your thinking to the 700+ community groups on our map? They are all extremely concerned about the impact of building on their local areas.
We'd be very happy to chat.

Whilst not building enough social housing, we now have over 1m more homes than households & sites with planning permission could supply over 1m homes but are not yet built! There is also sufficient brownfield to build over 1m more homes but developers prefer greenfield!

Mostly, the value of nature is only recognized when it brings us relief and one is directly affected by it. However, nature does much more for humanity than some want to admit. 💚🌿🌲🌳🌱☘️🍀💚
Your 'moment of doom' for Mar. 25, 2023 ~ If you aren't yet a doomer, this should do the trick.

I'll tell you why everyone from all sides attack doomers. There's no money to be made from us. You can't monetize the doomer philosophy. You can't advertise to doomers or sell us sh&t. We f&%king reject the capitalist (and every other) system that pushes crap to buy. We are free.
Aviation chiefs don't give a f*ck about the impact of jet vapors.
Jet vapors double the effect of C02 emissions on the climate.

Denialist strategy saying the "science" isn't clear enough.
Proud to join over 100 other lawyers in signing a declaration of conscience withholding our services from supporting new fossil fuel projects & prosecuting peaceful climate protesters. In the week that the IPCC issued its ‘final warning to humanity’, lawyers must act responsibly
A climate denier walks into a bar and says to the bartender, "give me a shot of your strongest whiskey."
The bartender pours him a shot of 97% proof.
The denier says, "Only 97% proof? I'm not buying it!"
"What’s on their ledger in terms of harm ... nothing like it in human history."
The prospect of billions of deaths. The end of civilisation. The notion of law based society. If the Law cannot prosecute this, what is the point of it prosecuting anything?
