Well, I can't say with 100% that we're done for either! But to me it looks more and more like we really dropped the ball, in a game where you don't get to drop

We[1] have known about antrophogenic climate change since about 50 years, but for fun and profit decided to deny and lie about it. [2]
Even today we've got "serious business interests" that are actively fighting any attempt to mitigate the damage. Heck, even the President of the United States makes fun about it.
So, I see slim chances for survival (of our global civilisation). Yes, we humans are ingenious, impressive creatures. But we've triggered a cascade that will just keep on going. Now the arctic is burning, releasing frozen methane.
I really hope for your global effort. But I don't see it arriving until it is way too late.
