As much as I share your sentiment any catastrophe will almost certainly be dismissed as natural or, my personal favourite "act of God". And the massive loss of innocent species and their worlds is too high a price to pay for that education.
Also, it bears noting that these facts have been well understood for some time now. Its simply being ignored because it is inconvenient. Its a great pity that catastrophe is needed to force the masses to force the powers that be to affect change, all the while those powers were very much aware of the coming crisis. How could they not be ?
- agumonkey 11y agoWe have to recognize at that point that the human as a whole is still incapable of dealing with this. Either too busy trying to live (sorry for third world people) or too self centered to not think about short term profits. As for loss of biodiversity, nature doesn't care and if we managed to tilt a planet's climate to the point of wiping half of our own selves from it.. then good for the planet.
