I’m so fucking :doomer: and while I know it’s a coping mechanism I fail to argue against it.
Let’s just share wholesome happy things in this thread.

Let’s just share wholesome happy things in this thread.
China is investing $73 trillion dollars (with a T) over the next decades into fighting climate change . It's the biggest investment in human history.
They also have the world's most successful and aggressive anti-desertification campaign aimed at combating the spread of the Gobi Desert, and have pledged to plant and conserve some 70 billion trees.
It's not all bad out there comrade :Care-Comrade:
:amerikkka-clap: YANKEES: $42069 trillion dollars into military spending
:xi-lib-tears: TANKIES: $73 trillion dollars into fighting climate change
name you favorite ees
yay, a small part of the total globe is sensible. I’d get more hope if they were expanding their military in order to defeat American nukes and get the ability to do a un-reciprocated first strike. But that’s negative talk.
I’ll decide to join you in being happy about the trees. I love trees. My trip to the great redwood forest was the best day of my life, unironic and no shit.

Also the only other country with redwoods! Can’t do shit given the scope of the Amazon’s destruction though. There’s literally no coming back from that.
Nucking the self-destructive US is totally unnecessary and overkill. Save that uranium and plutonium for the reactors.
Eh, my evil leaders won’t give up power until they die or are forced to. And uranium isn’t rare enough to make using a waste of it ends US hegemony. Which won’t end without force unless the earth allows itself to be destroyed in the name of patience.
They will turn on one another and take the fragile dollar with them. The fact that yuan for oil even came up in public is a telling sign that the rest of the world sees the beginnings of a civil war in the US. You are in for some mighty fine degrowth boys.
I hope. My hopes hasn’t come true before, yet I hope still.
It's not small! China has the largest population on Earth at around 1.4 billion! That's way more then America!
Small in terms of international power. When is the last time China imposed its will? That is the measure of power at the end of the day. Making somebody who is wrong act right.
China, despite being 17.5% of the world population, controls 28.4% of worldwide industrial production. If 28.4% of worldwide industrial production became carbon neutral, that is an incredible change. And the fact is, China's share of global production increases by about 1% every 2 years. Going forward, it isn't completely impossible that their share would be so enormous that they can single handedly dictate climate policy for much of the world's industry based on economics alone.
I hope so.

:xi-plz: save us all, nukes only if we really ask for it.
:china:
Capitalism vs Socialism aside, the US is going to get left behind by not just China, but even its fellow global north countries.
While serious countries are tackling climate change or at least strategizing, America is more concerned with drowning :grillman: in absolute shit-tier consoomerist garbage, or tormenting the eeeeevil minority of the week for some good ol' fashioned bread & circuses.
