Yes. Dr Shanna Swan wrote a book about it called Countdown. She's proven that it is having a direct impact on our reproductive system as an endocrine disruptor.
Eh, humanity is overrated anyway. I'm not an extinctionist, but if we wipe ourselves out that would pretty funny and appropriate.
Honestly after watching society and social media for the last few years…just go ahead and demolish the planet to build the bypass.
Thanks for the fish.
The only way to improve the climate is to dramatically decrease the human population. If plastics are good at it, I say USE MORE PLASTICS!!!
This is just not true, it’s 4 companies driving almost alll climate impacting technologies, human population has been stabilizing across the board and human race is projected to peak at 10 billion.
We have the resources to accommodate that number. It’s our technology, not the people and it’s fucking corporations.
Human population should peak below 1B.
Ah yes, im sure you have many figures and sources of why that is a fact
…and it’s totally not your opinion “that human bad and number must go down because I’m smart and cynical”
Sure, yo go first.
I started 3D printing all the shit for a reason!
