Climate Town

We've got a big ol' task ahead of us and it's important to start our collective engines (figurative, not literal) on reducing our government's fossil fuel use. It's going to take an effort on the scale of the new deal (but like a ... I dunno, green one or something) and we'll need to keep climate change front of mind for the foreseeable future if we want to have a shot of pressuring corporations and government into doing the right thing.

The good folks down at fossil fuels, airlines & major corporations have finally seen the light! So if they accept climate change and its implications, what's their plan to ... oh, it's carbon offsets? Well, buckle your shoes and then unbuckle them, because here's a big ol' portion of carbon offsets won't save us (but actually they're not bad things in principal, so pls calm down my-mom's-doggy-daycare-center-who-buys-carbon-offsets).

I hoped you enjoyed what can only be described as an extremely loose two minutes. Thanks for sticking around for however long you did.

If you were worried that the plastic industry was getting a little too trustworthy, worry no longer!
