Though day in Japan yesterday.
And now stonks are back up.
That's why you don't invest on leverage, so you don't get margin called and get knocked out of the market on big down days. -

Originally posted by Bradley that's a valid point, and it's not like it's gonna get really bad for everyone that survives just kinda bad
The future is already going to be fucked, we have unavoidable demographic, dysgenic, debt and natural resource crises all queued up.
People in the future will curse us for sucking up all the oil, depleting all the phosphorus and natural resources, transforming the demographics of the planet, running up massive debts we couldn't pay, the whole thing. We party, and we are leaving them with a burnt out hell planet. -

Originally posted by Jiggaboo_Johnson Um because we are but one insignificant species out of millions that have existed.
You're making my point…self absorption and self interest…it's nothing to do with habitats or saving the whales etc…it's about humans saving their own skin.
Good riddance I say, life will have a better standard of living without us and something better and more worthy might come along in a million years or so…think about the greater good rather than the self.
Oh, well fair enough. If I didn't care about humanity at all I probably wouldn't care about climate change either. -

Originally posted by Jiggaboo_Johnson No it's a 4.5 billion record of climate change…changes of which you can't imagine…and yet here we are…so a few degrees temperature change or a few % more of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is NOTHING…in fact…again, life THRIVED when the Earth was much hotter than it is now and CO2 content was higher.
4.5 billion year record > 200 years of human records and a few blue haired nutters who are so self absorbed with themselves they think the Earth and life on it will end if they do
No serious person thinks climate change will destroy the earth or all life.
What it will do is lower standards of living in several different ways and cause catastrophic sea level rise, reducing land mass available to human civilisation.
Why shouldn't we worry about that? -

Originally posted by Jiggaboo_Johnson History of the Earth…that's the convincing reason.
The Earth has been through far greater "threats" and extremes and is still here…It warming up historically also results in an explosion of life.
That's an argument that the rock that is the earth will survive climate change, not an explanation for why climate change isn't something we need to worry about.
