A comment on Scientists Identify How Many Trees to Plant and Where to Stop Climate Crisis. Parent comment
We should at least address the elephant in the room.
For centuries the west (including me) has consumed the planet resources while colonizing the rest of the world.
Now that poor countries started having access to the same kind of benefits we have, we tell them that they should stop doing it.
It's not gonna happen, so we.better start thinking about what we will do when the oceans levels will rise.
Hopefully for me living in the Mediterranean sea will make the catastrophe bearable.
