Excess Deniers
Posted: Thu 10 Dec 2015, 23:17:42
We like to hand out labels
Climate change deniers
AGW deniers (AGW) cause I can't spell for beans
Peak oil deniers
I'd like to add one more, EXCESS DENIERS!
ED's are those who think that the path forward does not require us making any life style changes. We will switch form ff to alts. and continue with our life style. We will find ways to feed 9 billion folks and make them all well educated free people continuing our life style. The USA will continue to have the baddest kick ass military forever. Etc.
I see this denial a lot, that we can continue our ways, we won't have to give up anything. When folks say we need to replace ff with alts my blood runs cold. When they say we need carbon capture technology, I seeth.
We don't need that stuff. Nice to have? Sure. We NEED TO REDUCE our waste, our crap, our stuff. Know how much technology we have to develop, how much infrastructure we need to build, how much we have to invest to REDUCE? Zero, zilch, nada, 0. WE just have to stop whining and change our ways a bit and DO something. If you don't get on that band wagon, YOU are an ED.
Dish washers! Drive me crazy. Why in Gods green Earth does anyone need a dish washer? Yet I hear some NPR report from a Brit Twit living "off grid" complaining she can't run her DISH WASHER on cloudy days. My freakin heart BLEEDS for you lady. Get a life. She's bitching she can't run the DISH WASHER, vacume, and tellie all at the same time. She's a bloody ED! She's NOT green!
I "operated" a dish washer exactly ONCE in my life time, it took me 2 hours to mop up the resultant mess. We live in Philladelphia (4 more weeks ) we do NOT have AC. It can be done. Tellie? No, and good riddence. We are better off. From here we are down sizing.
Rant off...fun game
YOU MIGHT BE AN EXCESS DENIER IF...
you think we NEED carbon sequestration to reduce emissions
You think we NEED a carbon tax to reduce emissions
You think we NEED Elon Musk anything....
You think we NEED......???
