Rationalizing fears, justifying inaction. It’s too late, there’s nothing we can do. If your reaction to climate and collapse is to do nothing, you are part of the problem. Learn about overshoot and aerosol demasking. Read Limits to Growth and get back to me.

Do something. Do nothing. Worry, don’t worry. It doesn’t matter. Collapse is inevitable.
