1. DOOMER 🔥 🤷 🔥

You’ve read the headlines and skimmed the IPCC reports and concluded that in fact, we’ve missed the boat. It’s all hopeless. We are the virus, etc. etc. Without us, Earth can finally get back to looking like a Lisa Frank poster.

Pro: No way to change anything? No need to do anything!

Con: No one invites you anywhere these days (?) Probably unrelated.

Pro: You get to live guilt-free until the curtains close; eating steak, racking up airline miles and perpetuating the system that caused this because *throws hands up* nothing we do matters! Am I right!?

Con: You won’t get the chance to stick it to the fossil fuel industries that intentionally manufactured this feeling of doom. Could’ve been a really fun time.
