@matana @applejack @LukeAlmighty the point is that you have to use up way more resources and way more space for "green" power methods to be efficient and even then, their energy footprint will only make up for itself after decades of use while also needing to be subsidized by other "dirty" methods of power. In doing so, people are destroying a lot more land and disrupting more natural ecosystems while trying to offset the amount of co2 in the atmosphere. Pretty much every method of power has its downsides but a lot of people who want to "go green" are ignorant to that, sometimes wilfully. Another way you could show that in comic form would be some fruit driving an electric car thinking they're doing something good for the environment but then the next panel would be how many resources it takes to make the car and how the electricity the car uses is actually generated.

With your "technology" example, if the whole world switched to clean energy it would take a lot of time and drastically more space to generate the same amount of power we generate now in order to use and create the technology. I think "clean" energy should be used when possible, but it has to make sense. I still think we should be leaning way more into nuclear power because it's way more efficient than anything else and the factory is going to take up similar amounts of space. We have ways of dealing with all of its other problems at this point.

@LukeAlmighty because he got a lot of wealth by profiting off of super cheap African labor mining or some shit like that.

@LukeAlmighty from what I've heard, 2 and 3 are really great and 4 is a good one too, 5 is still a good game but perhaps not as good as the aforementioned. I've never played the games personally but I will say I like the style of 5 the most, the music especially.

@hideki these are just extremely large figures which really puts things into perspective now that I think about it...

The guys were talking about celebrity crushes, throwing out all these actress names and all I could contribute to the conversation was Chloe Grace Moretz and Sumire Uesaka to which they responded with "who...?" and then "WHO?!"
