Ask any biologist. The overview effect surprises us because we see the planet that way always, every day of our lives. Since sending all people to space for 6 months is not feasible, we should instead teach ecosystem biology and atmospheric physics a core subject in primary and secondary school.

Outstanding essay. And what a chilling statement:

"I have come to think that [science] sometimes contributes to decision-making delays. As long as societies trust that researchers will eventually deliver a technological solution — a breakthrough energy source, scalable carbon-removal technology or climate-proof agriculture — it is easier to postpone systemic change. Science can unintentionally function as a reassurance mechanism."
