The Earth's climate is a monolith, one big system we are all subject to, and this is a pass fail test for the species. Feel free to tell the CAT 6 hurricanes about your nation's carbon footprint if you think it will help.
I'm not reveling in the doom, I'm living life, aware the outcome for this species is bleak. I don't respect self-delusion.
This species has been at the brink of what it thought was surely economic, ecological, and societal collapse a bunch of times in its existence.
Maybe we’ll get past this one, or maybe Malthus will have turned out to be right.
