BC is burning, and I saw this post on Facebook.

Nah, climate change isn't real.

Don't worry, glorified golf course sprinklers will save us!

I know, this is jaded for a solar punk post, but we don't need sprinkler defense - we need megacorps to stop producing 50% of global emissions

I agree with you but trouble is of course that without good policy, the cost of infrastructure will just get dumped on the bottom 99% while the benefit will be corrupted and skewed to unfairly benefit the 1%.

That's obviously already true of a lot of other infrastructure. People can barely afford basic fucking maintenance as is. Without undoing the dynamic already in place it'll just keep happening with new disaster infrastructure.
