To paraphrase George Carlin: The planet is fine, but the people are fucked.
- padseeker 6y agoI think about that comment from Carlin ALL THE TIME in relationship to global warming and natural disaster. Our perspective on saving the planet is very ego and species centric. As said in Jurassic Park "Life finds a way". However that life might not include humans.
- Dirlewanger 6y agoDoes that mean we should just let nature take its course, or maybe be proactive about it and fix some of humanity's worst tendencies i.e. our extremely wasteful society, plastic absolutely everywhere?
- redisman 6y agoThe planet is fine, but 99% of current species and a large number of current plants are fucked.
