Oddbean new post about login | logout I said a thing to Gregory Barber for WIRED. Apparently, I think we should consume less if we want to do something about climate change. https://www.wired.com/story/new-apple-watch-series-9-wont-be-carbon-neutral/ https://s3.eu-central-2.wasabisys.com/mastodonworld/media_attachments/files/111/066/531/094/015/719/original/7bacef5b245a1be5.png
@8606bdb4 the problem with the notion of removing CO2 is that it's another brainwash, it makes people think we've got it licked, we're just going to hoover up all the pollution, and so gives the CO2 producing industries a pass. During war time certain materials and activities are restricted, we need that heavy hand now, nobody is going to self-sacrifice, it must be mandated with penalties for non-compliance, and with a propaganda campaign, just like war time rationing was.
