Talked to a very smart person this afternoon who reminded me: climate fatalism ("it's too late") is a soft form of denialism.

Everything we do from here is worthwhile. It counts, it makes a difference. No matter what damage has been done, we can still make things better than if we had done nothing. We can still look after the world, look after our friends and family. Action has results.

@stephen It's not too late for mitigation, but also, for revenge.

If the people destroying our ecosystem thought that there would be very very negative consequences to them personally, they would behave quite differently.
