@edc128e6 I wish a company like Apple would just say, screw it, we're going to spend a trillion dollars in a new nonprofit division, working with, say, the UN, aimed at mitigating the climate crisis on every front imaginable, in every way imaginable, worldwide, starting now. It sure isn't going to be Google that does it. It sure isn't going to be . . . heh . . . Tesla that does it. 

But Apple could pull it off. Apple wants to be a nation? Be a nation then. But a good one. 

 @2f51dd5c I hear what you’re saying. It’ll never happen. Not because it’s Apple. Because that’s just not how the world works. It never will. At least in Apple’s case they are creating products that have given folks enjoyment and possibilities in work and play. 

Whether that’s a good thing or not only history can judge because we certainly can’t while we’re in the middle of living through it.
