Cool, tell those boomers to tell their boomer peers we are literally on a dying planet and they need to vote for politicians that want to stop the end of the world.

I understand it's fun to blame boomers for climate change, but this was something that started before their generation existed and it will continue to be a problem after they're gone. You can also blame them for inaction in addressing it, but given that the only real solution is an extreme degree of collective austerity across multiple civilizations, which is something innately at conflict with the expansionist nature of capitalism as an economic system (something which also predated boomers and which will continue to be a problem after they're gone), then I would say that if you expect the problem to start being solved as soon as that generation is dead and buried, you're going to be sorely disappointed.

Statistically speaking it's young people who don't vote much.

We're too late to prevent climate change. Our efforts should instead be going towards mitigating the damage that consumerism is doing to our environment.

At this point we need drastic geoengineering and carbon capture solutions.
