@starry1086 @CiaraNi @justafrog Re latter maybe resolve by using it differently to how BP intended. If intended to be a useless concept because only a few people will reduce their carbon footprint voluntarily and others will just take up the slack, it could be used in a mandatory way via carbon taxes or some kind of carbon budget...
Glad I stumbled into this corner of mastodon, I think about this stuff a lot!
@jroper I was glad to find this corner of Mastodon too! I found it through the new #ClimateDiary tag. It's (my interpretation of it, at least) for ordinary people to share reflections, observations, niggling questions ('Daffodils in February!'; 'It's snowing in April, is that weather or climate?'; 'great new public transport initiative in my town') etc.
The big questions are so overwhelming that I find it oddly comforting to see other people's thoughts about living in a climate crisis.
@jroper @starry1086 @justafrog Agreed that we don't need to use BP's starting point as ours. Quite the opposite really.
