    I wonder how many times, humans or another versions of us, set down and started arguing how we could save this planet in the 4'5 billions years it's been here, asteroids, volcanos, ice ages, drought periods, decertifications,

    the planet is still here,

    we have to stop pretending we have the power to save this planet and switch the subject of how we are going to save ourselves from what this planet can do to us,

    • desertification =/= decertifications,
      I'll also add infectious diseases and earthquakes to the list of way this planet can wipe us out

    • The Cimate change debate should be nothing more than about us learning to live within our means, and trying to fix our previous fuck ups. That's it. Just that.detritus
    • Isn't that like saying "why bother wearing seat belts, if I am meant to go, I'll go?"formed
    • "Save the planet" was always just shorthand for keeping it liveable for humans.yuekit
    • No one seriously thought the entire planet was going to be destroyed like in some B movie sci fi.yuekit
    • Liveable for an being on here now, sureformed
