The rules are simple:

- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Oh no, they're not just going to let it happen. They'll actively stop us from solving it.
"Sorry kid, I need my 9% returns on these investment funds, and I don't care where that money comes from."
I bought this stock from a company called planter or something, it's going crazy lately
Unless it's renewable energy tech, then fuck it, those shitheads can rot in hell!
Well im not having solar panels near my town. They'll absorb all the sunlight and it'll be dark!
Windmills slow the planet down!!!
WINDMILLS DO NOT WORK THAT WAY! GOODNIGHT!
But wouldn't it be nice if there was more time in a day?
And they'll put more of us on the planet too, because it's so wonderful here.
But the windmills will kill all the birds (that there are none left of)!
Not real ones, anyway
Solving? There's an undeniable solution that has been there as long as the problem has
Which is...?
Stop burning fossil fuels.
That would help, but definitely not stop climate change.
Sure, taking your foot off the accelerator doesn't technically stop the car.
Either you ration things that warm the planet, or you find a way to cool it directly? Neither of these options can be done at a large enough scale.
Humans have never been good at constraining cultures that gorge on a limited buffet of resources.
Implementing climate control will be costly and is still controversial, especially proposed solutions that require polluting the stratosphere with chemicals.
I'm still optimistic about geoengineering research.
Of course, nobody will want to foot that bill until they're staring the threat in the eyes.
There's a pretty public list of who owns the most resources
I'm in favor of completely remove the humans. We should have the tech already.
