This has to be satire surely.
We're gonna need that sense of humor as the climate shit hits the fan.
These people fervently believe that they will prosper once the earth is destroyed, so please trust that they will do everything in their lives to make it so.
Is deliberately sinking the ship faster so we have to board said lifeboat much sooner part of that strategy?
> But we are heading down the path very seriously.
Being pushed at gunpoint, more like.
1) we are past the point of no return in climate change
2) climate change will radically change the nations of the earth and the viability of territories cause mass upheaval
3) this is inevitable and coordination will not work as you can’t expect nations drowning to act rationally or cooperatively.
4) prepare in any way you can as fast and aggressively as possible.
Hmm...I wonder who did that?
Is paying taxpayer money to shut down already approved windfarms a good way to prepare for climate change? A few extra years to prepare that "armed lifeboat" are completely unnecessary?
Control over the opened trade routes and natural resources as the northern oceans thaw will be a highly contested global issue, the type of issue that can lead to war.
Of course, this is a more charitable interpretation of long term plans than might be warranted.
I agree that Canada and the EU should've been more responsible for their own defense. Hope going forward they are and cut out the USA as much as possible.
If that is so onerous, multiple EU countries should get nuclear missiles and make an EU NATO. But you don't want that. You want the dollar propped up irrationally by your military promises and you want NATO and non-NATO proxies against Russia ans China.
The promises incidentally fail yet again in Iran, where the Saudis already make other treaties with Turkey and Pakistan.
