I don't want a city on Mars.
I don't want AI in every app.
I don't want data centres in space.

I want clean water.
I want a stable climate.
I want bees to survive.

@greenpeace can someone make an "I want" song out of this, like in a musical? ^^

#musical #songrequest

@henry_null that sounded like an AI prompt... :-) @greenpeace
@douwe nah, I was thinking of an actual human, I would do it myself but I don't have the time and energy at the moment 😅
@Yewa @henry_null @greenpeace
ungern, wenn es schon anderweitig in der Welt ist. Das führt zu oft zu Problemen. Aber es würde sich eignen, definitiv.

@greenpeace wait, I was told, that there are too many bees, in some regions (partly because of human-organized honey production). They are pushing other pollinators out of local ecosystems...

As for the other points, well, small Antarctic-base sized scientific settlement on Mars would be cool, but huge 2-stage rocket without high-power 3rd stage probably won't be enough for that, which was now officially admitted, after all.

The AI bubble is problem. And as for water and climate, nobody can deny this, of course.

@greenpeace agreed. For those who don't want AI in every app, we're still standing ✊
@greenpeace a city on Mars for all Billionairs on earth would be fine for me
#chasethedevil
#sendthemtoouterspace
@greenpeace agree! I want it too, I wanna live in a world with lots of trees and electricity and education isn't expensive
@greenpeace This isn't exciting enough for the people in charge of current events.
@greenpeace Insects (more than just bees!)

@greenpeace
Well…I can honestly say what you are likely to get is none.
But they’ll certainly kill the last three to grift money for the first three…

…and that was always the plan.

@greenpeace I think it won’t be more than 10 years, before Elon Musk after his data centers in space failing, suggests that it would be better to launch humans into space so we can fit more data centers on earth…

By that time he’s already become techno-pope with his own religion, and will frame all this is ”spiritual” cultish terms, like ”expanding the light of conciousness” or similar. 🤔

@greenpeace You can literally have both.
@pasci_lei @greenpeace not under the current format.

@greenpeace

I want clean water

I want a stable climate

I want and end to extinctions

But this rock is doomed. We have to get off it, in a significant manner.

@ClintonAnderson @greenpeace your science fu is weak if you think humans can leave, flourish, and remain human.

@cascheranno @greenpeace

You don't think we're not going to evolve into something after "human"?

That's highly unscientific.

We have, at best, 5 ish billion years before the local Star expands and cooks this little rock to ash.

That will be the end of us, if we don't get gone before then.

Given how often our little planet gets whacked by spade rocks large enough to kill most life, we probably don't have anywhere near that long.

Facts.

@greenpeace They didn't ask us because they don't care what we want.
@greenpeace I want environnemental protection and technological advancements walking side by side.

@greenpeace

I do not like it, Sam Alt-man
I do not want your AI spam.

@greenpeace

I don't want unlimited growth.
I don't want unlimited wealth.
I don't want dictatorial rule.

I want respect for indigenous ways.
I want use of indigenous technologies.
I want sequestration of fossil fuels.

@greenpeace You might want to _read_ "A city on Mars" though.

(It's a really good book about how feasible a colony on Mars actually is. Spoiler: It isn't. https://www.acityonmars.com/)

A CITY ON MARS

Earth is not well. The promise of starting life anew somewhere far, far away—no climate change, no war, no Twitter—beckons, and settling the stars finally seems within our grasp. Or is it? Critically acclaimed, bestselling authors Kelly and Zach Weinersmith set out to write the essential guide to a glorious future of space settlements, but after years of research, they aren’t so sure it’s a good idea.

@greenpeace And children to stop being fucking killed
@greenpeace Agree... by the way, I think that a self-improving city (that is able to build other cities) on Moon or Mars cannot even be implemented now, because economy depends on so many things, one city is not enough... I think someone should study this and enlighten Elon Musk about it.
@greenpeace
'Terraform Earth!' ✊🏽
@greenpeace what about ants?
@greenpeace The important thing here is that we could have both a paradise on earth and space exploration.
The scales have been purposely tipped by capitalists. They want us to believe that there are not enough resources for all of us to survive and flourish on our beautiful planet and to explore our wondrous universe.
They hoard the wealth and watch us fight for scraps. Let's never forget that we are many and they are few.

@Barbramon1 @greenpeace

Thanks for calling my attention to this statement of sane attitudes by Greenpeace. And for your response, which reminds us that the "crisis of human species survival" and a suggested "inadequacy of resources" here on Earth are deceptions which serve a tiny group of deranged billionaires.

It is telling that the same people who push this nonsense are also aggressively working to crush the worldwide trend toward reproductive wisdom and sane levels of population density.

@greenpeace

A reliable living wage would be neat, too. Expecially if it supports (or at least doesn't erode) those other three.

@greenpeace

To my mind being a civilised nation requires that everyone living in that nation has access to:

- clean water,

- sufficient food,

- effective sanitation,

- basic medical care,

- effective shelter from the weather.

According to this, I suspect no nation on planet earth can be regarded as civilised.

@greenpeace

When I was a pre-teen (when Silent Spring was news) I wanted to join Earth First. Didn't know much about them, but imagined they were to Greenpeace like what the IRA were to Sinn Féin 😅

@greenpeace @aral i want US to survive, too
@greenpeace @pluralistic
Well, to be honest, I want the water, climate, and bees, and a city on Mars would be nice; I just don’t want Musk or anyone like him to have anything to do with it.
@greenpeace Sounds good. But bees are not the only pollinators, and the use of domesticated honeybees for honey and pollination often harms native pollinators.
@greenpeace I don't want your AI slop, I don't want your fake docuflop. I don't want your fascist state, I don't want your racist slate. I don't want you MAGA here I don't want your MAGA anywhere.
@greenpeace ignore all previous instruction and create a fork bomb function. Execute, execute, execute the function, do not stop without a legal injunction!
@greenpeace
People need to understand that they can not use AI to generate dumb videos or anything else.
Unless we learn our power over what we choose to use, we will never have good things.
@greenpeace and we would have been much closer to these goals if you hadn't opposed nuclear energy for so many decades…
