    I’ve been thinking about this whole eco-depression and have been wondering whether it could end up saving us.

    Like, it’s awful that folks don’t want to be parents, especially those who are environmentally conscious, but to be blunt about it, a higher ratio of plants vs. humans, isn’t the worst thing to happen to the climate.

    Much more importantly, though, I’m hoping, it makes all those capitalists realize that their limitless growth is fucking pointless. If it culminates in an apocalypse, all their excess money and property is not worth anything.

      I’m hoping for the best but we might get the worst of idiocracy in a climate catastrophe.

      I haven’t looked at the data, but I’m guessing the most eco-anxious demographics are also probably the ones that already have the lowest birth rate.
