I'll be honest I think we have 10-15 years before things are just unbearable enough that most of the world will attempt military and or economic action towards countries like Germany that simply put, do not care at all about the environment and literally ban alternatives such as nuclear power all cause of political reasons.

We have historic inflation here in Peru, prices of common food we produce is to the roof, people can't afford it, in Lima the lakes we get water from (desert city) are at 65-70% of the normal because of no rain.

Crops are being lost because they are seasonal and we've been the entire winter but temperatures have not fallen below 19-20 degrees celcius at the minimum and going as high as 25 degrees MID WINTER, when usually it'd be 11-12 min and highs of 17 top.

It is very literally impossible to keep going if this gets even worse, no rain and having it impossible to farm winter crops, that's just a recipe for disaster.

Please don't start nationalistic flamewars on HN. I get that you're writing from a position of stress, and your experience matters, but this is not a helpful stress response.

(edit: I didn't flag your comment, in case that helps at all)

At this point I just want my country (France) to use its military nuclear deterrence capability to force countries with high-emission energy sources to massively buy civil nuclear power plants from us.

NB: This is an improvement in responses re my own longstanding criticisms as with <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37270026>.

I'm not sure I've properly understood your criticism, but as far as "improvement in responses" goes—all I did there was bog-standard HN moderation. No change at all from my perspective.

This addition, specifically: "I get that you're writing from a position of stress, and your experience matters, but this is not a helpful stress response."

I presently find that appearing ... once only ... via Algolia:
