You should be forced to live like an average Indonesian (or Indian, Pakistani, Nigerian) for a month and see how you deal with that life.
My wife has been an indonesian all her life and her family does pretty well. She and her sisters have university degrees. Her sisters both are married, have 2 or 1 kid.
It's all pretty fine. Labour is very cheap but so is the cost of living. They barely have any old people and a high labour force. Their economy has been booming.
Maybe you should go there
I'm from India, you moron.
And how's their ecology? They're going to get hit by climate change pretty hard.
They choose a booming economy and development over ecology. Just like we did in Europe in the 1800s
Go tell them to stop developing their economy because we want everyone to be emission neutral. While we are developed enough to achieve that already.
You really like keeping people poor
Whatever dude. Stay delusional.
Stay economically illiterate
Better than being a climate change denier.
I don't deny climate change, I just accept it temporarily until world is developed enough to go emission neutral
As I said, delusional.
Will you accept it when rampant food shortages start becoming a thing, because places that used to be cultivable aren’t anymore due to climate change and pollution?
The food supply has been greatly increased in the latest 2 decades. Primary crops grew by 56% between 2000 and 2022
You have no fucking clue what you’re talking about, and you definitely have no fucking clue about what “ecological collapse” means. But you do you.
I don't see the problem if we're still able to increase the output ☺️
The point is that you won’t be able to access it, because it’s going to go away.
