The real issue here is industry is destroying our planet, and you nitpick the media because you can't handle the real problem. Bike shedding.
What do you propose, going back to a preindustrial lifestyle? Do you have something better than we do that or we all die message that I'm criticizing? Bike shedding my ass.
Bullshit jobs 40-75%, transport & cars to those bullshit jobs, too much stuff produced we don't need, ...
> as will carbon capture
Not soon, no. Lookup how much is already in the air and how much is the technology able to capture. We'd need tens of thousands of such factories. We have the technology - we have trees.
> going back to a preindustrial lifestyle
Living sustainably != preindustrial lifestyle.
> something better than we do that or we all die
Doing what we've done before (= more of the bad stuff that got us where we are) will get us to the "we all die" part.
