Doom is a privilege we can’t afford.

“Some days I think that if we lose the #climate battle, it’ll be due in no small part to this defeatism among the comfortable in the global north, while people in frontline communities continue to fight like hell for survival. Which is why fighting defeatism is also climate work.” - Rebecca Solnit

We can’t afford to be climate doomers

It often seems that people are searching harder for evidence we’re defeated than that we can win

@luckytran It's also possible to think we're likely doomed but fight anyway. Survival will require a more equitable society. Much of what needs to change is a benefit regardless. We can and should make changes that will help people adapt to what's coming. Accepting the coming disaster doesn't mean we can't do anything to help weather it.

And if we are doomed, we have even more justification to hold the people responsible to account. Don't let them get away with fanning the flames of destruction
