I am Californian and at least with my own friends, family and neighbors there has been an increase in interest in the idea of separation from the US. We are kinda getting tired of the rest of the country going against our principals and interests while still benefiting from our resources. We have a larger population then Canada yet we only get 2 votes in the national legislature. Why should we continue participating in the insane politics of a dying empire?

I would say its a yes and. Yes it costs a lot of money and it’s not as efficient as trees long term. But Trees + these machines + no longer burning and releasing CO2 at the current rate + land rewilding = a chance at survival.

China is not stupid, they have no issue with crashing the global economy by separating itself from fossil fuel consumption. They want to be the technology powerhouse of the world in the 21’st century, where/if fossil fuels play a role in that who knows.

It never works out.

They think they will “win” because they assume its all a zero-sum game. They will lose IMO because the rest of us don’t think life is zero-sum, corpo or not still gotta put a roof over my head and still got to put food on the table.

There is no green in growth…period.

Cool, but the insurance companies are not. Lets see who wins this game.

Finally some quality entertainment.
