    I am all for wealth redistribution, but if you redistribute wealth the result would probably be even more CO2 emissions. (At least then, fewer people had to suffer)

      Yeah. Just redistributing isn’t enough. We need a change in culture and better education as well. Luckily the culture is already changing despite everything, the old hags currently throwing a tantrum (establishing fascism in the process) just have to finally rot in hell.

      Badically. Like, yeah, a few private jets flying around is bad. But can you imagine what twice the people flying around on holidays would mean?
