Right. I’d be like if as an example American hunters protested a wind farm b/c it made deer less common in an area. Maintaining ecosystems are important to regional diversity, but at some point you’re going to have to draw the line with what’s necessary to transition a green energy and what is essentially performative.(culture/traditions are important but not a necessity when it comes to saving the planet).

Not sure what “this” is or how someone would use “this” against me and for what reason. I’m providing context to an admittedly unenlightened comment from an admittedly checked-out human being on an admittedly suffering planet. Your irreverence holds as much weight and impact as any one of the tiny internet comments we’ve traded back and forth, yet it is still important to note that the next generation has not given up, nearly as much as either of us, on the sick planet with which we are burdening them while we retreat to the back halves of our lives here. If we’re going to do this to them, we can at least pretend that we cared or tried to help in even the smallest way. Otherwise, I’m sure they will cherish your sardonic wit, as that’s how you seem to want to be remembered. Your aloofness is not noble, though I do understand the mental/emotional self-preservation that it comes from.
