Finally someone admits it: Tim Cook "My Generation Has Failed You"

quote:
“In some important ways, my generation has failed you,” Cook said. “We spent too much time debating, too focused on the fight and not enough on progress.” “You don’t need to look far to find an example of that failure,” he continued, pointing to an example that no one understands better than those living in the natural disaster-dogged New Orleans: climate change. “This problem doesn’t get easier based on who wins an election. It’s about who has one life’s lottery and has the luxury of ignoring this issue, and who stands to lose everything. The costal communities, including some right here in Louisiana, that are already making plans to leave behind the places they’ve called home for generations and head for higher ground… When we talk about climate change, I challenge you to look for those who have the most to lose and find the real, true empathy that comes from something shared. When you do that, the political noise dies down and you can feel your feet planted on solid ground.”

What does climate change have to do with Coastal erosion and New Orleans being built below sea level?
Posted on 5/20/19 at 12:50 pm to CaptainPanic
The notion that humans can modify the climate on this planet is fricking stupid.

How are so many smart people idiots?

Leave it to a liberal to preach about climate change at a graduation ceremony

Yeah, that's absolutely not going on anymore.

What does climate change have to do with locating cities in poor locations? The Mississippi River levee system is more to blame than climate change.

Tulane? Yeah, no way Tim Cook was paying their student loan debt.

They are aware that 2005 was not the first time New Orleans was hit by a major hurricane, right? It was, however, the first time the levees broke. Which, last I checked, was not attributable to climate change.
We harnessed the flow of the rivers (particularly the Mississippi) which altered the natural flooding and sediment disbursement that had been taking place for millions, upon millions of years. Well before the industrial revolution.
But sure, man-made climate change is to blame for poor people wanting to leave homelands at the brink, if not already below sea level.
Does anyone really thing coastal erosion won't happen if we somehow figure out a way to keep the earth's temp at just the perfect degree? Plus, for all the doomsday post Katrina predictions, everyone seems to forget NOLA hasn't dealt with a major hurricane since (nearly 15 years)

Tim Cook should hang himself to atone for his failure and donate his worldly possessions to the poor people of NOLA
Posted on 5/20/19 at 1:06 pm to CaptainPanic
And from the sound of it, based on those quotes from the speech: they are still failing us.
Good job Cook.

It's amazing that he made it so far in life with the IQ of a fruit fly.

Animals, including humans, have been forced to migrate to more favorable areas of living due to changes since the dawn of time. The world is always changing as is the climate. We get too sentimental over the status quo we comfortably enjoy and become arrogant enough to think we can change Mother Nature

So he's choosing a hoax to claim his generation failed you?
Tim Cook is failing here and very badly at that.

Dude could do much to save the Planet by simply offing himself and encouraging like-minded Cultists to do the same.....
If millions of people suddenly had a Zero Carbon footprint, it would do more to save the Planet from the boogeyman than virtue-signaling at a graduation.
