Elizabeth Kolbert writing about the recent heat wave and climate change... we are "insane" if we just ignore the issue. There are things we can do, we can make major, fundamental changes, all of us... we can tax carbon, we can invest in clean energy, promote sustainable lifestyles... we can be vegetarians, or cut back on meat consumption, we can drive less or not at all... instead we dither and ignore and deny... and argue about stupid shit...weird, and irresponsible... and yes, insane...
"There’s no discussion of what could be done to avert the worst effects of climate change, even as the insanity of doing nothing becomes increasingly obvious." - E. K.
