    he’s absolutely right. climate goals are not currently attainable, due to the resistance of companies like Google.

      Fuck protecting American interests.

      We need to be protecting HUMAN interests. Not billionaires desires for more zeros at the end of their net worth.

        I don’t disagree, but I elect my government to protect me, their citizen.

        but a world government would be nice to imagine, horrible to live in though.
