One million years from now... - Lemmy.world

Do you think they’ll be extinct, transferred to computers, moved onto other corners of the universe, or become the horses?

We have way too much hubris about how we’re going about life. Acting like we own nature, and we aren’t actually a part of the ecosystem. And we have an existential crisis with climate change on our hands, and we’re basically doing fuck all about it.

In fact, we are increasing oil production in many places right now. Probably the dumbest thing people will look back on when there’s no more oil and climate change is in full swing. Why didn’t we try harder to change course when we had a chance?

Because people could make money by not changing course.
