Insinuates the very nature and attributes of masculinity that lead them to be in leadership roles are to blame for choices that cause climate change and by extension inferring that femininity would be immune to making the same decisions.
Firstly.
The type of men who become CEOs, they are a very specific subset of male population.
Almost psychopathic obsession with work. Which when you consider the greater variability nature of men.
Of course, more psychopathically obsessed men would exist and by extension of course more CEOs would be men.
Estimations have CEOs at up to 20% of them have psychopathic tendencies.
Much higher than the % in general population of men. Much much higher % than women.
2nd when you look bigger picture.
When you also consider the reasons why heavy industry fossil fuels were pushed in the 19th and early 20th century.
Life was hard; you would not have the time to sit and write nonsense like this because you would be busy refilling your whale oil lamp and hand washing your laundry in cold water while hoping your husband or father comes back with all his limbs intact from his current whaling expedition if he comes back at all.
All these heavy industries have afforded the writer a very comfortable life they now enjoy, because the abundance of energy has allowed the world to be tamed largely to such an extent in our daily lives. We have free time to waste of frivolous activities. We have to go to the gym to work out because food is so abundant, and everyday chores are so easy we need to consciously work at keeping our weight under control. Placing blame on masculinity and men with no acknowledgement of the men who died over the centuries working to tame the world and it's not a men vs women thing, both men and women worked and suffered together to get the world to the state it is today.
Sitting there enjoying all the benefits of a world tamed by heavy industries while at the same time wanting to blame men for creating the very industries that had tamed the world.
Hubris.
This sort of rhetoric is the same arrogance as the attitude from 1st world nations trying to lecture and bar developing nations from using the same cheap and abundant energy sources that 1st world nations had used to get themselves in their current state of development.
Could also make the same broad speculation about women and birth control medication in wastewater reaching water sources polluting the water with estradiol, causing male fish and frogs to revert to females.
Whatever.
