wouldn’t it be better to do it on our own terms rather than in a global catastrophe?

The catastrophy is inevitable, it’s just a question of whether any humans will survive.

For example CO2 has a delayed effect of ~40years (if I remember correctly). The effects of global warming are very much obvious now, but the yearly output hasn’t at any point dropped to those levels since.

Transportation of goods is mostly a capitalist issue. You don’t need to cover a cucumber with plastic and ship it half way across the world, while selling the local ones to richer countries. The same goes for the vast majority of “goods”. Remove all of that greedy, superfluous shit, and you’re left with minimal shipping needs.

Meanwhile the USA possibly spent almost a bil on training camps in Pakistan, and who knows how much on the Pakistani ISI.

Remind me, who spent billions funding and training the Taliban?
