can't we just burn more coal? /s

got me thinking about this tv series i watched,ugh, there is this apocalyptic tv series and ~~i can't remember what it's call but ~~there was a scene in the global south (india) and the character wakes up, goes to a vendor to get his morning tea, refill his air tank and also uses the vendor's air mask to breathe(as like a convenient thing) . they then go to sleep in their air conditioned sleeping bags that is all dingy and patched with duct tape.

i think the series ends

spoiler spoiler with a plane getting shot down some ecoterrorist successfully do some cloud seeding, because the water is all fucked up (or i may be remembering from another series) :::
