No need to regret. As you said, the living planet is irreplaceable and infinitely more precious than artefacts of technology which can be built again and again, yet our thoughtless species largely pursues trivialities and in the process squanders what cannot be regained. But comments like these are not well received so I seldom say them out loud.
- crispinb 9y agoSure, I don't resile from the basic point at all. Ecosystems are collapsing, and will take the dependent virtual worlds of business and tech with them if we don't change course. But the case isn't made any stronger by bagging individuals. I'm all for speaking up against mainstream myths, but it's usually worth taking a pause before being pointlessly combative.
