I am 80pc sure we will ruin our world for ourselves. (I'm guessing most agree)

We (as a species) won't take the situation seriously until its too late.

You only have to look at the so called modern countries that are going backwards to know we won't stop it.
The budget for example. Could easly have not given the tax breaks and invested that into renewables or any other environmental scheme. Such an easy win. But no. And if we cant make those easy decisions, how are we going to make the hard ones.

We are too selfish. It isnt going to happen

Lol ok. But in all seriousness the point im making here is that given the choice 99% of humans would choose another human over an animal if that said human was a mother/father/sister/brother/son/daughter. Even you :P

Because avocados are a trendy health food these days, its fairly easy to get stories trending on how the avocado is destroying the world, whereas the meat industry has always lived with its stigma and it has been brushed aside for convenient, cheap grub and profit.

Yea totally agree. I was just trying to broaden the subject matter. Its a food consumption thing and we humans gotta eat and in this day in age we can pretty much eat what we like (location subjective).

Was talking about this with gf yesterday.

I said at least when we have wiped ourselves out and 75pc of species the world will recover.
The earth is favourable to life in the solar system. We cant destroy it enough (before we destroy ourswlves) to prevent life ever recovering.

And yes, the budget giving high earners more and nothing for the environment is perfect evidence of why we won' s our own destruction.

I wonder if kids born now will even survive to old age. That'ssomething for the posters who are saying "I care about my kids over the environment"

Oh c'mon, the UK is 1% of the worlds population, and we already do more than most towards the environment, why not look at the US, China and India before blaming the UK?
 
Hard to get to invested in things like this otherwise you'll just be depressed constantly..

You know that the majority of polution and CO2 emissions are coming from China and India.. without their ridiculous 1.5b and 1.3b populations we wouldn't be in this situation.
 
furthermore i dont know a single person in the UK that doesn't do something towards helping or reducing their impact on the environment..

Reducing electricity usage with smart meters
Paying for plastic bags
Recycling cans/card-board
Using energy saving light bulbs

Etc etc etc..

Not to mention that 15% of our energy comes from wind power..

People in the UK are a bastion for saving the environment already, its the rest of the world that needs to change..

Not that much. I support anything that will bring the population down to sustainable levels and halt the rampant destruction of the Earths natural wonders.

Burnt kids in Chinese costumes, Darwinism, Western men becoming impotent due to plastic pollution, famines due to CO2, Trump/Putin pressing nuclear buttons, its all good with me tbh.

It's OK as with the imminent failure of antibiotics to treat infection we'll be dying in a millions in a few years time.

Its not enough.
We do some, we could do more. Others could do a lot more.
We also play a big part in China. They manufacture stuff for us. We are indirectly responsible there tok
