Don't forget they are going to intentionally force us back to coal and oil, and stifle all transitions to cleaner energy. So really how bad could it be

Oh yeah, the world is pretty fucked here. We're at a tipping point for climate disaster.

Honestly, maybe this is what the cure is for humanity.

The Oxygen Catastrophe wasn't a one-time poisoning. It was a series of oxygenation waves, killing themselves off only to rebuild and kill themselves off again. We were never cured of the oxygen polluters.

It’s going to be interesting when climate refugees start overwhelming the habitable regions (like Pennsylvania, Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, and Wisconsin), driving housing costs even higher. People who think housing prices are high now will rudely awaken when the influx of people from the coastal regions – who have not only been displaced by climate disasters but have also lost their savings, and insurance will not bail them out – are competing for already limited affordable housing and local jobs.

But of course more drilling will totally fix that, right?

Well see they fixed that by taking the cheaper labor sources for fixing coastal roofs after storms and actively paying to have them removed from the country, while no longer accepting their taxes. : )

Everyone knows when you increase labor shortages, and prices for construction material, construction costs and insurance go down! ...wait

Easter Islanders cut down all the their trees, so they couldn't even escape the collapse their behavior brought on. We're going to see that world wide now.
