I mean we were those babies and were dealing with it now. Summers suck, the energy in weather systems is great leading to creamy weather around the globe, the ski season is shite, year on year were setting high temperature records, etc.

My parents will say something to the effect of “we didn’t know” and “you reap all the benefits of it in your education, transport, etc”. Meanwhile I’m researching in 100% renewable integration in power systems engineering and have never driven a car in my life. Never use air conditioning, essentially my costs on the environment are outside of my control. Supply chain wastage, plastic packaging of food and perishables, planned obsolescence and inefficient conversion of energy in archaic systems. I’m doing my bit the best I can to be honest, enabling the integration of PV/EVs into the transmission grid.
