• When I see articles like this and climate problems in general it just screams to me how fucked we are. My only hope is that I die before things get really bad because I don’t believe that capitalism will let our government change the status quo. They’ll push for new desalination techniques they can charge a pretty penny for and kick the can down the road further before allowing regulations and serious action to take place.

    Yes this is a defeatist attitude because honestly I feel pretty defeated and I don’t see a way things will get better in the current political climate.
