Anyone telling you the climate is not changing due to human activity is a corporate lobbyist, or someone parroting a corporate lobbyist

The next level of cope is that the world isn’t a stagnant system and that the climate change that’s occurring is actually good and we should let it happen

I’m a bit doom-pilled about the climate currently. Energy-production is so tightly bound to state power that it’s in no countries’ interest to stop drilling for cheap hydrocarbons.

Diversification. One of the elements of Venezuela’s downfall was that they put all their eggs in one basket

Downfall is doing a lot of work there, the entire government is still intact save for Maduro. But to your point, China investing a lot in renewables might save their ass down the line if they suddenly get largely cut off from fossil fuels (like the US would like to have happen)

Ah, by downfall I mean the fact that their economy has been cooked despite sitting on so much oil. I fully believe if they prioritized infrastructure maintenance, diversified a bit, and rooted out corruption then they could be like Qatar
