> So whenever climate action comes up I ask: What is the end state that you are seeking? Is the goal to permanently solidify an undefined homeostasis? For what group? Are you trying to make northern Africa green again? That's all philosophical and nice, but it's just like asking everyone in the lower Mississippi basin "So what is the end game here? The river has changed its courses throughout geological history. Are we trying to lock it up in an artificial stasis?" And we could save billions of dollars spent on trying to artificially keep the river from flooding half of Arkansas. Somehow I don't think they would appreciate my wisdom. (In fact, it's actually worse; at least we don't have a "water industry" increasing the flow of the Mississippi every year and saying "But water is essential for life!")
