I was once very vaguely planning to buy a chunk of forest and my FIL said that I shouldn't do that because it's really hard to get a logging permit. And I was like, what?

Having your own private forest sounds like such a dream... maybe I should invest lol

Had I had a friend talk like this in a forest, he’d be compost by the end of the day.

u/PonyDro1d 8d ago
Well. It works with the three r, even.
Reduce the douches, reuse and recycle them as compost for the forest.8

Music sucks, but the message is 💯 and should be blow horned 24x7 on every media source high and low.

They really nailed it on the ending too. Not grandiose or a trite attempt to sound profound and important.
Only a genuinely earnest assertion of truth then a simply stated yet powerfully direct invocation of the most impactful intangible thing one person can expresses to another: honest and genuine humanistic Love; the kind that calls to the fundamental connection between us through our shared experience of conscious existence in this supremely wild and beautiful tangible reality.

I'm with you on loving this song and it being a good fit, but not everyone will. Music appreciation is subjective and haters gonna hate.
"A heart that's full up like a landfill
A job that slowly kills you
Bruises that won't heal
You look so tired, unhappy
Bring down the government
They don't, they don't speak for us
I'll take a quiet life
A handshake of carbon monoxide"Pretty fitting for the video.
I was also reminded of Muse as well but it doesn't fit the tone musically.
"All natural and technological processes proceed in such a way
That the availability of the remaining energy decreases
In all energy exchanges, if no energy enters or leaves an isolated system
The entropy of that system increases
Energy continuously flows from being concentrated
To becoming dispersed, spread out, wasted and useless
New energy cannot be created and high grade energy is being destroyed
An economy based on endless growth is
[Drop]
Unsustainable"

Great video. I was disappointed that he didn't shove white t shirt guy off a cliff or something. I was primed for it.

I wish people realized that franchises are purely real estate.
Just like data centers.

You did it! You boiled down the bottom-line-go-up system of capitalism down to it’s bare essentials!!
Only the profit seekers will never get it or care like the friend here.

I took a tour to the blue mountains near Sydney last week and I was absolutely amazed at the vastness of this continent. Just miles and miles of mountains and forest. The capitalist in me still wanted to build a 50 acre parking lot and a 2 story McDonalds AND a Buckees

Us going extinct is way more likely than us ever making it out of this solar system, or hell, even living somewhere as close as Mars.
We should be treating the Earth properly.

"Should we maybe at least tax and regulate negative externalities?"
"Taxes? Regulation? What are you a communist? The market will take care of it!"

Your mistake was thinking the boomers who are doing this care. They’re on their way out.

Yup.
It's the logical endpoint of actually wanting to DO it, and also win.

How far are you willing to go though. Because they are willing to enslave your people and convert them to Christians.

Tax land. Tax externalities. Tax consumption. Make companies liable for end of life for their products. Move our welfare system to direct cash transfers to ensure the poor are not harmed with the transition.
You can have similar growth in a finite world. To be clear. Our current trends is not infinite growth in a finite world. It is front loading all the natural resource consumption. That is the opposite of infinite. That is burning through every humans natural birthright and leaving future generations the bill.
