matrixmannGreen activists of today - what do you still want protesting and invading coal-fired power stations or blocking convoys that transport nuclear waste from nuclear power stations to final disposal sites?
What is it that you see in this? Aren't there already environmental threads that deserve as much attention as these old dogmas of the Green movement?
At all, what about your own lifestyle? Do you spare to own computers, cars, live without electricity? Do you take care what your furniture is made of? How old it is? Do you live in one and the same flat for 20 years, no matter which way the tide comes?
Do you all produce your own clothes from your home-grown cotton plantation, so that people in Bangladesh, India, Indonesia or China aren't exploited?
Tell you what. If you're so obsessed with your ecologically okay energy production, how about not protesting in front of the fence of some headquarters of a big energy producer - and demanding from him to finally lie down cables to the several windmills build in the North Sea and the Baltic Sea? How about not making it a topic "we got alternatives, only this system doesn't like to change its structures"?
Or, how about not complaining about the behavior of this state that it protects one of their model car fabricants for building software into its cars, so the waste gas quotas are made suitable to the formal guideline?
How about not complaining being promised for 30 years that your car shall eat less and lesser gasoline, but in fact every newer car eats some more than the last?
Or, how about asking for what practice they imagine, when prohibiting all vehicles with conventional combustion engines, but technology is far from being able to offer you a car that can drive a thousand kilometers with one charge?
The only "truck" ever invented with success that can carry weights and cargo over long distances is an electric locomotive! But what is being invested, build and sold to private operators for trial? Streets and highways, no railroad tracks!
How are even your packages from an online retailer of your choice supposed to get to your home, when trucks are being prohibited? By drones?! By those energy eaters who can only carry one bundle at a time?!
What do you think all that comes from that enables you your comfy lifestyle?!
Does it come from swinging a wand in the air and speaking "Hocus pocus...!"?!
Does material get born from pure ideas?! Pure castles in the sky?!
If your forefathers had worked like that, they wouldn't even have been able to achieve sanitary facilities in every flat!
They'd still sit there in poverty, work to death, die from industrial dirt when they're 40 and see 3 of their 5 children dying in the meantime!
Oh, shit, I forgot... The first part already starts to become reality again, only in a bigger cage with more toys to distract and entertain oneself!
Go fry an egg - sort the hell of your own crap and protest again if you have found some good reason for it!
Go and read some books, instead of staying with old dusty dogmas or steadily trying to re-invent the wheel!
Listen to your parents and grandparents, how ecologically okay they could live even though dirty technology existed!
Learn from science that still is from times where ideas haven't been sold like bread - and figure out what things work like! You can even find answers in there for the problems of today!
Most of what you believe in to be the right path is a bunch of old dogmas and nonsense planted into your head by media and NGOs who are being paid for telling you what the world works like instead of making you think yourself!
...And by the way, rechargeable batteries of any kind, also the battery in your smart phone and in your electric car, all of them contain rare earth metals, dug out of the earth, making a few Chinese people die somewhere far away 'cause this shit is poison.
The good Lord didn't let them rain from the sky because you were such well-mannered children of the sun!
If someone ever told you this - he's liar.

Date: 29 August 2017 09:12 pm (UTC)Only can't say, when this point in time has been.
Ever since the beginning, it was only manipulation and fooling people... And that's so for a reason. The system doesn't want to change, it only wants you to believe it does.

Date: 29 August 2017 10:10 pm (UTC)Yes, I believe even more that the organizations like "Green Peace" are the weapon of corporations to fight for... money of course but it is still doesn't change the fact that there are now/ and were thousands of years ago the people which are/were willingly fasting, trying to use as less as possible and so on. Why religions are calling for thousands of years for moderation, to fasting...? Did the elders thought of global warming, I think no, they had been thinking of curing sins like greed, treating soul and body.
Yes, I was interested in eco technologies years ago and was told by old experienced scientists that eco technologies are expensive bullshit though I saw with my own eyes how the solar battery heats water at winter temperatures, so I believe we could do many positive for nature things doing business as well and this theme is interesting for me only as a fare business without any government's financial help.
You were writing right, all the modern technology using batteries are damaging more than helping but this fact doesn’t mean that the science couldn’t invent after some time new batteries which will not consist of expensive rare materials but from water or even vacuum for example but technology should be developed. There are many corporation’s things which could be changed on a government level which will help our planet. For example, recently our government demands of all the mobile phone producers to make the common same charger…
"The system doesn't want to change, it only wants you to believe it does."
Yes, the system does not want to, but maybe a person standing in the desert would like to change, even if in the next life ... who knows. ;)

Date: 30 August 2017 02:11 am (UTC)I think there are technological possibilities out there to get this this project going. Only I think "one at a time". You can't declare the end of conventional car engines and talk about prohibiting gasoline-fueled ones while you still haven't invented an electric engine for a car that can drive longer distances.
As long as only the DREAM exists, but the practical example is missing, what does the idea help me? Ideas are clouds, I can't base practical actions on them which require them to become something material in the first place.
But this is what activists here think. Because they got the cloud, tomorrow it's gonna produce material results all by itself. Bullshit... Clouds don't produce anything. Things don't drop from the sky over night just because you have an idea. This is thinking of a child that it does (and a child can draw something on paper and act like it can turn it into reality right away).

"Things don't drop from the sky over night just because you have an idea. This is thinking of a child that it does (and a child can draw something on paper and act like it can turn it into reality right away"
There are so many grown up children around that they are fans of the theories like "You'll get what you are thinking of".
