Wrong... Blame fossil fuel industry, blame the auto industry, blame tax cuts that result in the defunding of forestry management. and then most of all, blame ourselves for enabling all of the above
THEN we can join hands and fix this
You're 100% right. But my point is, international cooperation is key, and every country has a part to play. As we've all seen during the COVID pandemic politicizing natural disasters is a recipe for disaster, and unfortunately, it appears as though we haven't learnt a thing.
We have. Politicians who gobble fossil industry cock do not care. This is intentional and no amount of "learning" helps as long as oligarchs exist. Sorry.
"politicizing disasters" to me just sounds like exploring the possibility that there are people and actions to blame...
Disasters are kinda act of God. But doubling the odds (prob more like 10x) of having one is a human decision.
