Real talk: Maybe people over 50-60yo should really not have any saying when it comes to climate change. It's not the generation that will most likely suffer from the stupidity of white, privileged humans over the last couple centuries. Put the generation at power WRT to climate change that will need to grow up in it. We grown-ups fucked it up. Now it's time to step back and fix shit.

I agree with you, that’s why I have started a startup on green chemistry that does research on climate fixing chemical pathways. I work a day job to fund this myself, and am putting all my personal resources into it, I am definitely putting my money where my mouth is on fixing climate change.

but I think that you risk your important message about “affected people should have more voting power on this issue” being muddied or disregarded, because of your racist language, if you leave that part out, then your message is more pure, and harder for haters to attack.
