With a heat wave shattering temperature records across the country, let me just say that history will not look fondly on those who put fossil fuel profits above saving the planet.

they don't intend to leave us with anything, as the "great thinker" (yes that's sarcasm) Dumbya Bush once said, "who cares about history, we'll all be dead"

@rbreich History implies that there will still be somebody to write it down...

@rbreich Putting it mildly. At the rate they’re savaging the planet, one wonders if there will be anyone left alive to document their crimes.

There is a certain presidential candidate who will say, with complete certainty, that there is no heat wave and these temperature records aren't happening and his loyal followers will believe every single word.

@rbreich Have you seen that planet? People defacing friggn Stonehenge and sh*t? Not even talkin bout all the bombing. Why save it?

50 mio years from now, biosphere gonna do just fine again. No harm done, in the long run.

@rbreich I'd still prefer if instead of letting history judge them, we'd let judges judge them. Preferably soon.

You're assuming anyone will be left to read that history.

@rbreich There will not be enough people in the future to record nor worry about "history"...they'll be too pre-occupied with simply surviving.

@rbreich

the planet doesn’t need saving. it’ll chug along just fine. it doesn’t operate under a short term plan.

humans, on the other paw, can certainly doom themselves.

maybe after the majority of humans kick the proverbial bucket, the cockroaches will evolve into the dominant species. they couldn’t do any worse.

@rbreich unfortunately I don’t think they care about their historical legacy. That would require empathy and morality.
