And in some countries. Government forces are trying to clear forest areas in order to build new coal mine despite massive resistance from the local population. In fact the Turkish government is even destroying olive trees (which are bringing enormous revenue to the economy) in order to expand coal-mining activities.
Quote:Since the late 70’s big oil companies basically know everything about climate change. Just like tobacco companies the need for money and more profit has pushed them to lobby for climate inaction and even today they are trying to challenge scientific unanimity by calling us “climate alarmists” and things like that.They knew that northern countries will benefit from global warming and acted rationally.
1) Here is a good explanation of the current situation:
https://www.climate.gov/news-features/cl...-ever-been
My limited knowledge on this is: We are present on this earth at least since some 40,000 years. Intellect starts to appear in that period but there are other traces of us as far as 200,000 years. The Holocene era started 12,000 years ago. Ice caps retreated so we were able to build societies based on agriculture. Than the Anthropocene started at 1950. Scientists call this “The great acceleration” (and I greatly suggest everyone to read “The Climate Book” by Greta Thunberg. It’s a good combination of scientific articles that are being competed with articles written by the 18 year old climate activist). So World population was around 1 billion in 1800 and the two billion figure was only reached in 1930. After that it starts to double every few decade. But think that it took us about 12,000 years (starting from early farmer societies) to go from perhaps a few hundred thousand individual to just 1 billion. But that’s not what I wanted to say. What I want to say is that we are 8 billion now. 1 billion of us are already starving. So if the climate goes back to crocodiles in Antarctica, what is it that will happen to (most probably) all of us?

2) I love the Australian sland expression ".... all" (meaning zero). Please do check this video:
3) No. And that's my whole point about the human Ego. They spread conspiracy theories like that so that they keep making the "ching-ching". But that's how the human ego is. In they are going to get killed as much as we will get kileed
