- But this is a perfect way to make money by green labeling."use ours because we save you 20% electricity" so therefore our brands are creating less ghgs.
- True. But we also do need to manufacture a lot. Renewables, batteries, insulation, hobs and heaters, probably houses too. Unless you want everyone to live without heat and electricity.
  The best bet it government spending on public transport and communities and the reduction in work hours. That will make people do more instead of spend more.
No it won't. We can't consume our way out of this. It'll be won in drastic legislation.
- Which means it won't be won.

omg nyt! sometimes you're so embarrassing
I love that the illustration is of solar panels being installed on a roof. I didn’t realize you bought those in the appliance aisle.
No it fucking won't lol
