The Oil Drum

Hello enviro attny,

He is worse than a doomer. A doomer is convinced that the coming situation is going to be very bad, and nothing can stop it. Dave is eagerly awaiting the coming bad situation, and is cheering it on. I bet he leaves his car running all night to try and speed up the end of the world.

Am I the one cheering on this situation?

Don't you imagine that the oil, auto & power corporations bear some responsibility for the consequences of their extremely profitable behavior?

I advocate humankind ceasing all of these activities which are destroying the Earth. If I wanted billions of humans to die, I would invest in the oil industry and trade oil futures. Profiting from the crimes and pollutions of the oil industry seems like a reprehensible, evil activity to me.

And, no, I do not leave my car running all night nor leave my lights on when not in the room nor use the air conditioner/heater except when absolutely necessary nor eat any more than enough to keep my body running.

I am not in favor of anyone dying, but I know that billions of humans are already fated to die because of the crimes against Nature committed by humankind.

Anybody that is happy at the thought of the death of billions of people is seriously messed up.

But what of those who seek to profit from the deaths of billions?
