What Happens If Someone Tries A Discussion About "Ecology Versus Economy " ("Climate Change") Upon This Forum

Greetings, Anyone. I do not Post as Frequently as I used to. But this is a "Hot Topic" socially right now, but, a bit like CARS, no-one started a Thread about it.

My question is... the folly of "because One cannot see it, then it does no-one harm?"

...With regards to "Climate Change", this here WWW/Internet... & Electricity, Smartphones, Radiowaves, UHF, Mining Rare Minerals for said products, etc... All of this activity grows exponentially, just like the Population. Both are harmful in My Own opinion... but I am, um, 'insignificant'... so I was wondering about what anyone else's opinions about "Climate Change" are here in general.

(Beware I often have to sign off abruptly, sorry. But I post this and see if/how anyone else is interested in anyone else about it all.) From Me, Good Fortune To All Good People.

  • basically we have less than 20 years to start doing really significant changes ( stop using petrol diesel heating oil ) otherwise the weather patterns are going to change in ways I cant predict or stop. At same time we have to stop using plastic s much as we currently do because it is now in most if not all food chains.

  • The solution will probably come in form of technological innovation. Have you noticed that most car advertisement on TV are now for electric? It will come to fruition at some point. I am afraid it might also come in a shape of artificial lab grown meat. Natural produce will become a luxury for the rich.

  • Hi, to TinyExplorer and Aidie...

    Natural produce will become a luxury for the rich.
    no one knows for sure 

    ...I keep Thanking everyone, but I really meant it. The thing is... this IS a thing which IS already - and loooong - been happening. "processed" food is very very cheap --- adding Levulose (Sugar), or Carbohydrates, or Pork poroducts if needing "meat". 

    In the general sense, "PROCESSING" is CARBONIZING everything. It is a complicted thing - Chemistry - to begin to study, but it is totally worth the effort of learning about it.

    How this relates to My agreeing with what You both say here, and My attempting this Thread, is -- YES the "rich" ARE allowed/can afford to eat what is basically not Carbonized. If You can afford "expensive" foods then then these will have a very different effect upon a body not used to eating them. In the very base sense, it is the same as trying an "exotic" food...

    ...But to add even more more confusion to this Thread... the more a food is processed, then the more it contributes towards the Economy/'climate change'...!

    ...I am reeealy suspecting that no-one upon here knows what I mean? (So much disparity, so little allowance...)

  • ( ...To TinyExplorer... Again, Thanks. So many disparate things going on, so little *United* common sense...

    Assuming that by "Caws" You mean "Cows" (!)... then I do understand this... it is simply "passing the buck" - or rather, blaming "Green House Gas Emission" upon something other than Human Overpopulation. It makes sense to do this in a sort of "sweep it under the carpet" way (i.e. in Industrial Society!)... but developing the TECH to do so creates more 'Processing', and that offsets what is saved by doing stuff to any Cows... so, yes I get this. It is a pity, really.

    ...In pollution - food cannot be grown in sufficient quantity to feed those who enlarge pollution. So ?blame the food, not the Overpopulation?...  something like that...)
