Statistical life-expectancy depends on long-term data. Which of course is not keeping up with the rate at which we destroy the planet.
It's impossible to reliably conduct long-term analysis for a lot of environmental problems.
The problem at the center is not technological innovation, to the contrary.
The problem is scale.
Exponentially scaling the destruction of the environment, is kind of what we do as a species.
