Reply to comment by Mysterious_Emotion in Australia’s big polluters must cut emissions by nearly 5% a year, but can use offsets to get there | Greenhouse gas emissions by LachyWantsBrownies

Carbon capture without alternative energy source is literally virtue signalling too. That's what their hydrogen bullshit is about too, natural gas converted to hydrogen while still releasing the same amount of carbon dioxide. Oil companies are not trying to help at all and they dont even deserve to help, all their money, assets etc should be stripped off them and used towards actual preventative measures.

When I meant the oh shit climate change is a real issue moment that's when millions are starving, regions are getting hammered so often they cant even repair etc. When the polar ice is already long gone

Won’t have to wait that long. Polar icecaps are still around and it’s already happening. Mass extinction events, micro-plastics and synthetic toxic chemicals in all corners of the world, including living things like us, mountains upon mountains of waste from all industries piled up in backwater countries, facilities and infrastructures not able to keep up and withstand climate swings, many people dying….gonna be a pretty amazing fireworks display to look forward to.
