What's so interesting about this? Climate change will have killed off all civilization long before 2500 anyway.
As an exaggerated analogy consider a bus full of people seconds before it drives off a cliff. This paper would then be the guy in the bus that tries to warn us the tires might pop if we keep up this speed for 50 more miles.

- bertylicious 6y agoThere is no "we" or "us". There are just a couple hundred nations with different interests. If there really was a global movement superseding national governments then human civilization might have a slim chance, but only when employing drastic measures like global prohibition of cars, flights, meat, etc. as well as collectivization of all for-profit organizations. You saying "there is always something we can do", is just you hoping some Silicon Valley startup invents a magic bullet in the future so that you can keep your standard of living.
