😭

What

Wouldn’t fossil fuel firms want consumers to spend more

ive had a job for the last 4 months

I wonder what trades will pop off today at noon.

bro the marxist agenda has gotten so bad here that they monitor the amount of cow farts because they release too much gas

this is currently bankrupting farmers all over the country because they can't be profitable anymore but the EU government doesnt give a s***

not anymore fossil fuel companies are the biggest investors in green energy lol stay woke

The link didn’t work but I assumed it said regular people staying at home is making a real impact in saving the environment!

synop got a job?

They’d still want people to go out though because sheltering in place costs little energy

Don't you sass me

That thing I remember reading about how banks be profiting off carbon emission permits still wild to me

I think we saying the same thing here, but America here is diff from Europe, you see how ppl protest masks and simple social distancing here, if everyone complied, we won’t be in this boat, ppl still throwing parties and clubbing here, concerts and sport events too

On the air and water quality yes

i studied this a lot in school right as i was graduating it was picking up a lot of steam

it was the solution in the current model

doesn't constrain growth !

it's actually not the worst idea, it's how Tesla was profitable for a few years. they'd sell their own output as pure profit

the problem is these big companies use their own influence to limit real innovation and tech

and wash trading these credits does not actually solve any problems, especially China/India/Africa

this is what happens when the whole ideology is built around individualism and all our elected officials spend the time talking about personal responsibility

bro you are fetishizing europe

no one here wears masks lmao

it's actually f***ing freaky how little people care

i was in amsterdam this morning and i'd say maybe 10-20% of people were wearing masks outside

europeans are just as f***ed as americans

Yeah that’s usually my go-to answer for pollution negative externalities lol

But from what I remember they never teach us the negatives of this solution compared to the obvious negatives of like a tax or something

Are all the big trades happening today?

We’re in a lockdown and s*** don’t seem any different apart from the fact you can’t go to bars/restaurants/pubs

Went to the grocery store on the weekend and s*** was packed

wrong thread

p sure Sweden punted too

i think they're down bad

yeah that's it here

people still out like crazy. basically people try to be as creative as possible in finding a way to do things. people still shopping for food twice a week etc

the complete opposite of what these lockdowns are designed to do in the first place

for example they limit weed/alcohol sales at 8 pm now. so if you go to any weed store at 7:30 now the lines are long as f*** and people just queue up without masks in long lines. is this really solving the problem? none of the policies make sense much anymore and that exact fatigue is why people don't even adhere to basic rules thus making everything pointless

and that's in the best case scenario where the population actually listen to the rules. people are still going out for celebrations, protests, parties, you name it. f*** everyone

I need Ibaka on the Pelicans man
