The planet (28)
ChesneyChristManchester, Greater Manchester, England UK7,144 PostsThe emasculation of society is resulting in men with a point to prove no matter how pointless the point. It's a type of fruitless and/or frustrated hyperambition - ventures that will leave absolutely nothing for tomorrow prompted by the inferiority complex of today. This need to impress others is growing way out of hand. All is vanity.

Hopefully we can adapt to something more like Aldi the home of the intelligent consumer and highly-efficient worker. There's some inconvenience and little marketing involved at Aldi but what you get is a superior product for minimal carbon footprint and cost. Aldi shoppers tend to buy more of what they want and need instead of what they're put upon to buy. This somewhat less convenient yet more intelligent shop should be a model for many industries.

Not just aldi but the internet, too. These things can and will be used to defeat an obsolete and decadent system of shopping malls and warehouse-sized supermarkets.

Aldi fits another emerging norm which I'm a big fan of - working hard for 20-25 hours a week and getting paid more per hour. No more of this attending the workplace for 40 hours a week business - getting paid to show up is so last century - and if we implement a basic income there's a better chance of people still working on the principle of fewer, better working hours.

some people are destroying the planet, especially the rich people, the politicions, companyowners and so on.
And we, the average people just walk along, cuz that's what they expect us to do. And by walking along, we get a job, and money to buy us food, a house etc.
But look around in your house, I bet you see a lot of things you can live without.

I think your list might be your idea of the bad actors. But the real villains are just you, me and all of the people like us.And we, the average people just walk along, cuz that's what they expect us to do. And by walking along, we get a job, and money to buy us food, a house etc.

Probably there will not be a solution until eugenics becomes widespread. Mass forced abortions and sterilizations, executions for enemies of the state, final solutions as they were once called. They won't work, so a huge war will have to do the job. This one is likely to have the finality you seek.
Maybe we will not have to take actions. There could always be a BIG eruption such as in geologic times. Or maybe an errant body from space. 15km would do it. Stand by, news at eleven...
