    It’s fucked, and we were warned decades ago and did nothing but drill, baby, drill.

    A lot of people will die. Which I’m pretty sure they’re fine with, less people= less expenses for social welfare programs, lower property values, and so on

    “They” being the people in charge of our world-wide MegaForce economy, think JP Morgan and those who “serve” terms at The FED. (in actuality, they take turns reaming us, inflation is how central banks raise taxes without congressional approval).

        Much of this pollution is because we deliberately maximize consumption. It’s difficult to quantify how much better off the environment would be without a constant economic stimulus that led to petrodollar warfare.
