“we’ve waited too long to open the aperture on the solution sets in terms of what we need, as a society, to start reducing emissions,” Woods told Fortune

Ah, so we’ve finally hit the end point of The Slow Breakup
“Yeah, just shut the fuck up and give more money, you whining little shits. I’ve got a survival bunker to build. They aren’t cheap you know. “
Denied, Delayed, Disinformed successfully!
CEO, “Now, board of directors, how much bonus are you paying me.”
“too early, too late, whatever as long as now is not the right time that’s all I care about”
It is never too late, don’t give up. The earth without humans is generally slightly carbon negative, and there are cheap things to do that can encourage that - it will take 1000 years to undo things, but we can do it. Step 1 is becoming carbon neutral, and with wind/solar power that is easy for the majority of emitters.
It’s too late for him and his family and everyone who’s ever shared a table with him or has his private phone number to continue existing with the same number of limbs and sensory organs too.
I like your moxy
I know the first mother fucker I’m eating.
Seriously, this guy is looking awful tasty.
I’m just gonna use him to fuel the fire to cook real food tbh
I’ll polish up the guillotine!
We’ve already blown a tire, so we might as well slash the other four, right? 🙄
Getting the spare as well just to be certain?
Lol you caught that. I no count so good.
I no count so good.
A lot of newer cars don’t have spares, which could be seen as another grim element to the metaphor.
We’ve…
…said the Exon exec after they slashed your tire.
even the spare one?
To the people talking of guillotines and woodchippers, I think what you’re really looking for is the Brazen Bull of Phalaris. So appropriate on so many levels.
Or that thing with the honey and the flies
This has been “Climate Change Denial 2.0” for years now. Realistically, it’s nothing more than a neoliberal dogwhistle to signal “I’m on board for killing everyone if it’s profitable”.
Guess it’s never too late to put these fuckers up against a wall
… with his opinion which is of no consequence at all.
ambition makes him look pretty ugly
It makes it clear that a lot of the doomerism we’ve been seeing encouraged by oil industry PR firms is in fact coming from the top.
Honestly it shows that idiots will jump to whatever makes them feel tough, all these people calling for the ceo to be killed because they think he said the same tough guy thing that I’ve seen posted all over the place probably by many of the same people calling for his death…
Meanwhile he’s actually just said the same thing that all the experts in the field have been saying for a long time about how important it is to use economic forces to accelerate transition.
It would be so nice if we actually took the time to make informed opinions so we can work towards actual solutions. Yes it’s hard but if you actually care then that means putting in the work.
If anyone wanted a proof that environmental pessimism is only helping the oligarchs, there you fucking go
“Does anyone want to step up to pay?” No, I was thinking we could just tax the shit out of rich assholes like this empty suit and use that money.
Ha! I just saw a post from someone here on Lemmy last week saying this is what they’ll do.
There are actually books already written about how the PR folks the executives hire have been doing this for several years.
Well, if it’s too late and you fuckers have doomed us all, I guess we better haul out the guillotine, you absolute piece of shit.
The time for guillotines started years ago and is long overdue
it’s a tragedy that desperate people would rather go after a school or church than after these fuckers.
That’s what I don’t get. If I’m determined to off myself, why not take someone with me that would make the world a better place to be without? I definitely have a name at the top of my list, but since I’m not suicidal, it just remains a fantasy.
I hope this post doesn’t get me added to any lists myself. I’m talking in hypotheticals here.
If this was reddit, it may have. But this isnt reddit.
That’s a really poor suggestion.
The guillotine was invented as a fast, efficient, humane method of execution. It was meant to take the human factor out of it for a clean, repeatable result.
The device you want is called a wood chipper.
That’s not very carbon neutral…
They do in fact make electric wood chippers!
Could hand-crank it.
Well that just sounds like too much work.
I don’t know I like the idea of a union gig job of cranking the handle on the wood chipper and going on mandatory lunch break halfway through one of these CEOs
Solar powered?
I feel like the guillotine is meant as a symbol. I am also not gonna cannibalize these fucks, but I will tell you to eat them still.
The device you want is called a wood chipper.
A particularly slow and unsharpened one, though.
Feet first.
And doused in pure capsaicin.
And after having had a branch of that tree that makes you want to kill yourself rectally inserted.
