Let me guess, you’re one of those “climate change is natural and the Earth has changed climate before a bunch of times periodically!” types of people?
Turns out, pumping trillions of tons of CO2 into the atmosphere for 150 years is bad for interconnected ecosystems. Notice how it doesn’t really snow anymore in North America, or if it does, it’s a “once in a lifetime” snowpocalypse? Notice how the hurricanes in the south don’t really ever stop now? Notice how Europe floods like a motherfucker now? Notice how many people are dying of heat stroke every year? How every single year is the hottest year in history? Remember when the North Pole existed?
Also, how do you figure your kid is going to have an easy time? Statistically speaking, you make around $35k a year. Given the housing market and wage stagnation, your kid is most likely going to be in the working class who scrapes a living together with 5 roommates.
Statistically speaking, you make around $35k a year.
I make slightly more than triple that, plus my wife’s income. It’s trivially easy to clear $35k right now, if you’re willing to work some difficult, boring hours. I’ve dedicated my life to a role where I help frontline, unskilled laborers, and my last 2 jobs require 0 skills for our bottom-tier worker and will pay you well over 35k per year.
My daughter is in college for psychiatric nursing. I’m not worried about her. Entry level salary is about what I make now.
Also, slight correction - the north pole still exists. It’s just ice free more often. The north pole is a magnetic feature of the planet
