I usually just focus on one single thing to procrastinate. This way I can tell myself I'm doing something useful if I can absorb what I'm watching or reading while ignoring my responsibilities.
Unity is hors-concours, they've already won this race. None of these social networks have managed to fuck up so badly as to fully destroy their reputations like Unity did.
That's probably closer to what they actually try to do, which is much more reasonable but still requires a lot of resources. The problem is, there's a lot of money behind these criminals and not a lot of political good will towards preservation (right-wingers here basically think the forest stands in the way of our progress, so less environmental protections = more jobs and development, somehow) so getting funds to protect our forests is usually an uphill battle.
As nice as it sounds, I don't think it's feasible. The Amazon is absolutely massive and not very populated. The logistics of keeping armed guards all around the protected areas sounds like a nightmare. The only way I can see deforestation actually stopping is if cattle, soy and wood stop being lucrative businesses somehow.
I don't think there are deer on Antarctica, or any herbivores for that matter. It would be interesting to wait thousands of years and see what comes around to fill that niche.
Love me some Polandball.
