One is much more efficient.

I don’t think this can really be argued, the environmental impact of billionaires both directly and indirectly is catastrophic on a planetary level.

Absolutely.

If it's public, graphic, and serves as an example of what these monkeys will do to one who hordes all the bananas, and deters subsequent occurrence of banana-hording; yes.

The alternative is that we can all passively agree that all us monkeys must go extinct.

That's why you keep doing it. Eventually a chilling/deterrent effect will take hold. It's not like anyone's actually passionate about oil. They can go be apple orchard execs or something idk

You don't mow the lawn one time then call the work done forever.

The main issue is that people have been brainwashed into thinking peaceful protest is a viable method of achieving change against governments that are more than happy to butcher/enslave/maim you to preserve the status quo.

I think T Swizzle would be down for that.

It reminds me of the discourse around 'x companies are the cause of x% of global emissions'.

Yes, that's true, but they're doing so to meet a demand. We can (and should) take action to regulate these companies and force more environmentally friendly methods of production, but that will have ramifications on costs. Ultimately the most efficient way may be to reduce demand for some goods and services.

I work as a transport planner, for instance, and a huge number of emissions come from cars, but also the built environment (building and maintaining transport infrastructure). If we're going to be serious about dropping emissions, we need to fundamentally change the way we plan and build transport networks, including potentially cutting demand, one way or another.

All this against a backdrop of an incredibly unequitable transport infrastructure; if you hike costs then you knacker the ability of disadvantaged groups to get around for work, but also pleasure. Poor people deserve to be able to go on holiday too.

My general point is that for every smartarse post that says "climate change is easy to stop, all we need to do is cut the head off the snake" neglects to recognise that this isn't a snake of a problem; it's a hydra.

(Blech, melodramatic, but it does wind me up).

Not with that attitude we won't

The thing is that we should keep killing those CEOs until nobody wants to work that position, unless they appease the climate fanatics.

Not to mention getting her kids put on a list before they're born.

When push comes to shove you'd be surprised. Just read up on the French Revolution and see what happens when you make a baker or a florist snap. I'm a vegetarian but I think we should literally eat at least one billionaire to make a point. I'll take a bite to show my support.
