I hear you, but I think we need to take sustainability a little more seriously now while we have the luxury of a prosperous world. I think it's foolish to assume that technology will continue to bail us out at the current level of pressure we are putting on the planet's resources. More likely we will hit an inflection point where some pillar of our economy (eg. oil) becomes too expensive, and combine that with some refugee crisis created by climate change, and the federal government will not be able to maintain control. I hope it doesn't happen, but I feel like it's the most likely outcome on a 50-200 year time frame.
