Ok ok, but let's get beyond this techno-hopium -- and really soon, too. This tech has HUGE environmental and political costs. (Think global flexible regimes of accumulation.) So, if we're authentically concerned, then...

Controlled-environment survival scenarios are farce. All that tech requires huge investment, available technology, tools and energy, people, lots of people but it can't reliably produce food without LOTS of chemicals. Nope. More fantasy and hopium. #LifestyleChange #SustainableLifestyle #DeepConservation #SustainableCommunities #ResilientCommunities #TransitionTowns #MutualAid #CareForEarth #permaculture
Fellow boomers, we can't possibly understand the emotions that subsequent Generations are experiencing as they face the deteriorating Planet we have left them after taking the best for ourselves. Can you imagine being 25 years old and marginally literate and looking around at this world and imagining your future? Ugh.

And for you science buffs, are you familiar with the fascinating concepts of "positive feedback loops" and "thresholds"? I have a hunch that we will be hearing more about these intriguing ideas In the future. (I think that's the near future.)

Me thinx it's high time to build the social pressure for dealing with this calamity in front of us (planetary heating + massive species extinction + everything else). So... pound by pound, let the pressure build. It's time to raise the psychological cost of ignoring this monster. Every hour. Every day.
