No, as usual, don’t hate the player, hate the game. Facebook benefits from a huge network effect that locks people in if they want to keep in touch with their close ones. There is no alternative as you can't built a concurrent because facebook do not allow any interaction from the outside world.
So people come to facebook to keep in touch, and stay because the content is addictive.
Note that moste people are not posting, so they are not even contributing to the content.
Note also that social networks are using our brain biase to keep us addicted.
Not been on facebook fore some years now, but it is not "just" a medium. It is optimized to keep you on the site as much as possible, to show you as many ads as possible. This comes with the hard price of showing you what is divisive, as it keeps you engaged. So they do are responsible for prioritizing divisive posts and allowing ads that are so well targeted that they can make you tilt.

How will Overture code be licensed?
Overture’s open source code will be subject to the MIT license.
What is the relationship between Overture and OpenStreetMap?
Overture is a data-centric map project, not a community of individual map editors. Therefore, Overture is intended to be complementary to OSM. We combine OSM with other sources to produce new open map data sets. Overture data will be available for use by the OpenStreetMap community under compatible open data licenses. Overture members are encouraged to contribute to OSM directly.
> 1. Fear of meritocracy 2. Fear of countries not negotiating an equalitarian deal 3. Fear of the awful science of “that camp” (and I know exactly what 3 arguments you’ll oppose, so, don’t bother with the direct answer, please assume everything you want to answer is already understood and incorrect, and go straight to a second level of answers).
1. Meritocracy is a way to make you feel better for having more than others. In a finite world, having more than other means stealing from them. Nobody merits more than somebody else. At least not at the scale it is happening now. And don't assume that you work more than others.
2. I don't understand what you mean.
3. What is "that camp" ? What scientific studies are you talking about ?
You seem to think that you work more, or harder than other people, hence you are given more "consumption rights". Please consider that:
- A lot of people are not working to consume more, and it does not prevent them to work hard. They just aren't fulfilling themselves through consumerism.
- A lot of people are working harder than you, for less. Should we take parts of your share a give it to them ? Spoiler alert, you will be constrained below 2T of CO2 emission, that's for sure, because you are not working harder than others.
- In a finite world, emitting more than your share means stepping on somebody else's share. But why would have that privilege if you are not working more?
- In a finite world, stepping on someone else's share that you are not permitted to take leads to a conflict. Conflict means war in a planetary context.
If I may suggest, if what's blocking you from emitting less, is your desire to consume more, you should try to change that, as your consumption capability will reduce in the future, whether you want it or not. This is because our energy sources are becoming less abundant, which means less consumption capability for the same amount of work.
You might have posted on the wrong comment because I don't think anything I wrote could have led you to believe that I am a "a passive fossil fuel lobby repeater." ;).
The issue with aviation should not be framed by its share in total carbon emissions, which appears to be not that much. It's the fact that, in a world where the individual target of CO2 emissions is 2T, there is no room for aviation. Same thing for eating meat more than once a week, or using a personal car.

The temperature difference from the last ice age is only 5°C. Most of northern Europe was under a glacier all year long.
Forecasts are telling us a 2°C increase before the end of the centuary is already inevitable. If we do not change anything, a 4°C increase is really probable.
It is easy to imagine that a lot of place will become not be suitable to human life.
