Facebook is a cancer. It’s not “pushing the world forward.” It’s a phenomenal waste of energy.

There’s already a community of excited geniuses that work on preventing climate change - they’re called climate scientists, and their solution is a steep carbon tax. It could pay for a public interest ad campaign for recycling and energy efficient practices, distributed and targeted by the excited geniuses at Facebook. That way we can brainwash the Paleolithic know-nothing American public into behaving in a way that doesn’t destroy the planet.
