Pretty sure climate change is already here.
That, unfortunately, is true.
My advice is to live your life as best as you can without worrying too much about things you can’t control. Try and build a life around yourself that’ll help you be happy through it all, regardless of what happens. Enjoy your 20’s. 30’s are good too and 40’s don’t suck either.
To paraphrase Sun Tzu: do not choose a path to victory. Instead, choose a strategy such that all paths lead to victory.
And don’t have kids.
Don’t want em to suffer worse shit down the road.
Have kids if you want. It’s just insane to me to plan your entire life and make major decisions on a cataclysm that may or may not even occur in your lifetime; and it (climate change) may present in ways that we can’t even imagine now.
Edit, fine, fuck me, it’s raining fire and brimstone out there, billions of people are dying in the streets, the horsemen of the apocalypse are here, it’s game over for the human species, my bad. Nobody have kids, it’s over, might as well just shoot yourself right now.
Um… It’s literally happening right now. They told our grandparents “it’ll be your grandchildren who will really suffer”
We’re the grandchildren. Food and water shortages, people dying from the heat, floods, pandemics. All of it is happening in first world countries. The US, Europe, China… Last year, this year, next year
We’re past the “slowly gets worse” phase. We fucked around for that. We’re starting the “find out” phase
This one’s kinda loaded. Imagine everyone just stopped having kids. We’d be extinct.
We don’t need to pump them out like we’re recovering from a war.
Also whose gonna take care of all our old asses in the future? Society was kinda built on this system.
But yes, the population overall does need to decrease.
I don’t care if we go extinct. Once I’m dead reality shuts down since I can only experience it from my POV.
And it’s cute you think we’re gonna allowed to retire instead of dying at work or homeless. Real cute. We won’t have the same luxuries as the damn boomers.
