Taylor on the way to, ah forget it.

Why not use "straw" straws again?

[โ€“] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 8 months ago

Pasta straws seem like the obvious solution, it takes at least 5 minutes to soften in BOILING water, it's gonna last at least that long in a chilled beverage, and then if you throw it in the forest that's literally just food

I'm guessing it's because there's not as much profit for billionaires in it.

let me add my contribution to this meme:

image description: a luxurious inside view of a private jet, in which another jet is flying inside.
the text above it reads, "Taylor swift yendo al baรฑo de su jet."
lit: Taylor swift going to her jet's bathroom.

[โ€“] lawrence@lemmy.world 3 points 8 months ago

That's the equivalent of a lot of straws.

I don't know if all these recent jet memes are people just joking around or are you people actually convinced private jets are the problem?

Taylor swift, and every single billionaire alive could be flying 24/7/365 OR NOT and it would make absolutely no difference to fighting climate change.

The main polluters are industry and farming.

All this other shit around are just distractions keeping you from actually going after the people that are causing our crisis.

I don't know if it's astroturfing or what, but it seems like it's deliberate manipulation to keep people inactive.

You memeing on Tylor or using wood straws, or recycling your soda can does fuck all. A single paper plant will dump out so much co2 and pollution that will negate the effort of millions.

[โ€“] MacNCheezus@lemmy.today 2 points 8 months ago (3 children)

Well, none of that matters anyways when China now emits almost twice as much CO2 as the US and is basically single-handedly not just absorbing all the rest of the world's reduction efforts, but increasing the global output enormously.

[โ€“] lemmesay@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 8 months ago (5 children)

the data you shared only shows half the picture. if you take into account cumulative emissions, the US isn't doing any good. it's responsible fit a quarter of emissions to date.

[โ€“] MacNCheezus@lemmy.today 2 points 8 months ago

That's cumulative as in "from the beginning of time" (as far as we have record allowing us to estimate). It merely proves that the US has had a head start in all this because they industrialized at a large scale far earlier than China. But as you can see, China's curve is literally steeper than anyone else's, having already almost caught up to the EU in a mere 50 years.
