Ask HN: Working in tech for climate?
Here’s the problem you are going to run into:  The vast majority of the climate change&#x2F;save the planet movement is uninformed cult-think driven by a delusion fed by politicians who learned to earn votes with this from the unthinking masses.<p>The opposite side, the deniers, are just as delusional but for a different set of reasons.<p>In the end, you have two sides battling over bullshit and people on both ends of the scale making money and angling for power.<p>If you really want to help, take the time to truly understand and push for the truth to become the only conversation.<p>What is the truth?<p>We can’t do a thing about any of it.  Period.<p>The delusion (well, one of them) is to actually believe we can change a planetary-scale problem one thousand times faster than nature has managed over millions of years.  This is ridiculous.  It’s lunacy.  We are far more likely to kill everything on this planet than to save it.<p>The data is out there.  Not opinions.  Not my words.  High quality scientific data.  Start by studying the 800K year ice core atmospheric data we have and understand how the planet has dealt with this for millions of years.  That’s the start of the journey who should make anyone honest enough to look for the truth become horrified at the nonsense we are pummeled with every day.
