The only way Earth isn't environmentally fucked is if we become an interplanetary species, move 70% of humans elsewhere, and designate most of Earth as a sort of National Park. Nobody is gonna clean up their act during their own industrial revolutions and no one can credibly make them 🤷

1. going to mars is psyops. it won't make us multiplanetary. it'll make us two-planetary. anything more is a physics problem not an engineering one. all and all, there's so much more we could do with engineering alone, but the real bottleneck is physics. 2. static thinking in a dynamic world: cleaning a river 100 years ago would've costed 10x of now for 1/10th of the results. because we can't clean the earth now doesn't mean we never will be able to. (not a reason for unnecessary pollution). that being said. i hope we go to mars soon. i hope we become multiplanetary.

1. Never said Mars - could be spaceships for all I care. Tbh I trust in business driven physics advancement more than improvements in cross cultural human coordination outside of a global hegemonic conqueror forcing a monoculture 2. How do you square this with the fact that things are dirtier now than ever before?

1. yeah more picking on elon's rhetoric on this one than you. 2. pollution increases. and someone brought up a good point that it also compounds. but it's not the same pollution -- london in the 1800s compared to today. cost of solar coming down over time is a good non-pollution example. in 2008 putting solar was an ideological decision. now it's an economical one cause the costs came down due to better technology. the point is, things that don't work today, i.e. irreversible pollution, would not necessarily stay that way.

1. I’m more fine with this today than I ever have been 2. Sure I can buy that, but still think it’s more likely that we leave than clean up the house tho hahaha /rando is a fun channel experiment btw How do you think about it vs /no-channel ?

i want stuff that you wouldn't feel 'comfortable' posting anywhere else. rather than stuff that are just random. maybe i fucked up the name actually.
