I wish every moron who sees himself as seperate from nature the ability to become extinct first, if they are so eager to destroy everyone's only life raft.

"Extinction is a part of nature!" Ok, you first then, asshole.

Do right-wingers think environmentalists don't know nature can be fucked up? We know better than anyone, that's why we know that we need to be careful what we mess with or we're fucked

Nobel-prizewinning economist once dismissed the impact of climate change on agriculture because it only contributes 5% to the US GDP.

Probably this one: https://theconversation.com/nobel-prize-winning-economics-of-climate-change-is-misleading-and-dangerous-heres-why-145567

Honestly, in terms of liberal economics, it might even be correct, since GDP is so far removed from things that matter like this by design

That's it, thanks! That'll be 5,000 volts for Nordhaus and the Economics prize selection committee.
