The use of the word "help" on this headline and article is weird. It gives the impression this is a good thing rather than what it truly is: It's not good.

in reply to Jacob Urlich π • • •There's only one thing worse than having too many people in critical positions of power, that don't understand Root Cause Analysis; and that's too many that do, and STILL choose abuse of power.
It's one thing in burning fossil fuels, following a major revolution like the Industrial Revolution. It's another to have a clear path to graduating the burning application, and continuing to burn it, put future generations at risk, for the sake of more profit.
And the longer this continues; the more expendable our species is.
Stop the #ecocide #genocide. Replace the root causes.
