It’s going to get way worse before people really try to make it better.

Agreed... we still haven't hit the tipping point of realization for the average person. Its a bit hotter, few more wildfires, but you can still drop into an airconditioned wallymart and get obscenely more stuff than is needed.

What people, who’s going to be left

u/dafones 18d ago

The masses. Because you need the masses to take action.

u/Jazzer008 18d ago

I don’t think there will be masses left by the time the majority want serious action

If referencing the ETF, while not a financial advisor you’ll be better in water resources

Yah but did you read the other comments? We are all gunna get rich in the stock market by betting on the future of human suffering 🥳

I'll never be rich. But I can advocate for our planet. We should all invest in our planet in some capacity. Whether through stocks, time, or advocacy. We only have one planet and I care for it deeply. Continue the fight sir and continue to invest in green.

How is buying water utility stock investing in green or helping the planet in any way? You are just trying to capitalize on a crisis.

Water is a human right, not a commodity. The creation of a water market is disgusting. Gaming on human suffering.

u/Thegoods030 18d ago

No disagreement. You asked for an answer. I provided one. The answer explained technologies to keep it a human right. In the future, discussions generally are more productive when folks don't assume what the other is thinking and assume what views they may hold. Maybe try asking more questions before jumping to an immediate conclusion. Good luck to you and enjoy your day.

The question was, how is this helping the planet in any way?
Creating markets to buy and sell natural resources is how we got to climate emergency in the first place.

They aren't investing the money into green tech they are doing stock buybacks to manipulate the price. They also use the money to buy water rights from short sighted government officials so they can further manipulate the availability of the resource to game the derivative market in the same way ENRON controlled blackouts in California. Sometimes they just sell the water rights back to the desperate governments at a huge markup. It's all a game to these people.
