Pass it on.

🇳🇿@PariMoonForest @greenpeace unfortunately, Upton Sinclair's sage observation on this still applies. :(
Fallon Stone@greenpeace they aren't expecting the planet to die, just enough of the people so those remaining will be scared, servile and grateful to their capitalist overlords.

Vivian@greenpeace how can you no?
awkapuma@greenpeace There was never economic growth, it was always looting of a few.
It's called #capitalism

kirkiscool@greenpeace what good is being rich when the planet is underwater you might ask? well with all that oil money they are going to buy moon mansions.
Torger Åge Sinnes@greenpeace Guess that's why Elon is trying to make this his X planet?
Evan Schultheis@greenpeace Maybe you should stop being anti-nuclear then.

“Mr Speaker, I’m always fascinated to listen to gov members speak about their balanced and sensible approach where they’re just weighing up expanding the economy and jobs versus destroying the planet and coming down somewhere in the middle so that you’ve got a sensible balance between half the jobs against burning half the planet.
Let me give gov members just a quick insight : Jobs happen on the planet."

Adam Sweet@greenpeace I believe it's time for humans to go underground. Cities, towns and even rural areas can benefit by building underground:
Building underground offers several advantages, including:
1 Energy Efficiency: Underground homes have excellent thermal and insulative properties, making them energy-efficient in any climate
The surrounding soil acts as a natural insulator, helping to regulate temperature and reduce the need for heating or cooling systems.
2 Environmental Benefits: Underground housing is environmentally friendly, as it minimizes the visual impact on the landscape and reduces the need for land clearing
It can also contribute to energy conservation and sustainability efforts.
3 Protection from Severe Weather: Underground buildings are more resilient and can withstand severe weather conditions, such as storms and extreme temperatures
The surrounding soil provides natural protection and insulation.
4 Noise Reduction: Underground homes offer a quieter living environment due to the sound-absorbing properties of the surrounding soil
This can be especially beneficial for those seeking a peaceful and tranquil living space.
5 Effective Use of Urban Space: Underground development allows for the efficient use of available urban space
It provides opportunities to maximize land utilization without encroaching on the surface area.
To get started with building underground, consider the following steps:
Research and Planning: Familiarize yourself with the concept of underground construction and gather information about the specific requirements and regulations in your area. Consult with experts, architects, and engineers who specialize in underground construction.
Site Selection: Choose a suitable location for your underground project, considering factors such as soil conditions, drainage, accessibility, and proximity to utilities.
Design and Engineering: Work with professionals to develop a detailed design and engineering plan for your underground structure. This includes considerations for structural integrity, ventilation, lighting, and utility connections.
Permits and Approvals: Obtain the necessary permits and approvals from local authorities before starting construction. Ensure compliance with building codes and regulations specific to underground construction.
Construction and Implementation: Hire experienced contractors and construction teams with expertise in underground construction. Follow the design plans and specifications to ensure the successful execution of the project.
Safety and Maintenance: Prioritize safety during construction and implement proper safety measures. Once the construction is complete, establish a regular maintenance routine to ensure the longevity and functionality of your underground structure.
Remember that building underground can be a complex and specialized endeavor. It is essential to work with professionals who have experience in this type of construction to ensure a successful and safe project.

Lukas 🥔@greenpeace are you in favour of economic growth? 😉
sofia ☮️🏴@lukas economic growth doesn't really mean increased manufacture of things or more employment or anything like that. it really is about increased value creation.
in many cases increased productivity generally means using less ressources and/or labour, but governments don't necessarily like that… (or bosses, see David Graeber's "Bullshit Jobs")
Arena Cops 🇺🇦✌@greenpeace There's no parliamentary majority on a burnt planet.
Pass it on.

Harry Davies ✅️@greenpeace don't you guys love money too much?
Adrian Morales@greenpeace Of course. It's just that nobody understands anything or wants to understand. It’s not about you or me. It’s not about being rich or poor. It has nothing to do with protesting and fighting amongst each other. This is Ragnarök, a catastrophic series of natural disasters. No country, small or large, will escape it. No bunker will keep you safe for long.
It's pointless to even talk about it, so I'll stop now. Take good care, everyone.

Ντουγρού Ντουβαρί@greenpeace What I know is that for many yeats YOU have done absolutely nothing to protect #skouries in #Greece
anna_lillith 🇺🇦🌱🐖@dougroudouvari @greenpeace what is/are skouries? I checked the hashtag but it's all in Greek...
@anna_lillith @greenpeace Absolute and total destruction of a beautiful forest by a Canadian mining company

@dougroudouvari @greenpeace that's horrible 😒 I didn't know about that. Thank you so much for sharing 🙏🌿
@anna_lillith @greenpeace No ptobs. Also,if you type skouries Greece and mining,you can see the horrendous destruction over which neither GP nor WWF give a damn.
Poor villagers are left alone to fight the mining company, its goons and the police.
@dougroudouvari @greenpeace I'm going to read about it in more detail, thanks again 🌿
