to be fair the epa deals with quite a myriad of scientific research and domestic endeavors, like trying to keep radiation from leaking from landfills and preventing river pollution and shit like that
the EPA is the agency telling lawmakers that the crunchy hippie lobbyists are correct. the EPA is really fucking important and calling it a non-issue in the grand scheme of things re: global warming and general habitability of the USA would be very incorrect
pretty sure the planet burns either way and their efforts probably won’t change the temperature rise by a single degree, but whatever
also I don’t think they’re a non-issue when it comes to general habitability of the US, they’ve been keeping a giant radioactive site near me sealed since WW2.
You are so incredibly wrong about this it hurts
elaborate
if the epa is actually saving the planet and fixing climate change i’d love to be proved wrong cause that would be good for all of us!
You said the efforts of the epa won’t affect the temperature rise. That’s wrong.
nah - I said by a single degree. I guess it’s easy to miss that part. I could go out tomorrow, kill a few cows and burn down a hummer dealership. Wow, I’ve affected the temperature rise!
but yes incrementalism will save us
Throwing out good things in the name of rejecting incrementalism isn’t logically or practically sound
I understand and agree with your frustrations with incrementalism but don’t agree with your methods
I also think you might be a communist so I dont feel that comfortable interacting with you in a politics thread (dont want to be thrown out of the country when Trump comes to deliver on his promise to MAGA us all)
I don’t want to throw out the EPA, quite the opposite - give them the funding, workers, and POLITICAL POWER to accomplish what we absolutely need to do to prevent this, as well as working with other similar organizations across the world.
Really because a minute ago you said it didn’t matter that they were unfunded/unsupported
If you could provide a quote where I said that i’d appreciate it
It’s in your posts in this thread
Where? Which post or sentence did I say they should remain underfunded and ignored? stop trolling.
thats because right now they're Not lol
