Well, I'd argue it's all about buying time. Obviously nothing lasts forever, but that's no reason to throw the baby out with the bath-water.
If we can buy our species another couple centuries on this planet, we can probably start looking at leaving. But if we continue on this accelerated doomsday course we won't have time to re-imagine the "form" of our species.

I think we can practically do things that make sense economically, as well as environmentally that are no brainers like transitioning to renewable resources, solar, geo etc...
