>The planet will survive just fine.
Such a tired and nihilistic take. to call it survival is a stretch when we are artificially creating and contributing to the sixth mass extinction while we leave the planet full of plastic and cement, and devoid of the old growth forests that used to live here and help life flourish.
- mikhailfranco 3y agoYou know about ice ages? Snowball earth? You know what 1km depth of ice does to old growth forests? Cement is just human rock. Almost all of it will eventually be subducted. The planet will survive just fine.
- vjk800 3y agoAs long as there is even a tiny patch of living stuff somewhere on the planet, things living on it will slowly evolve and take over everything else. Sure, it's a slow process and we will not live to see it, but I find it pretty arrogant to think that we are actually capable of completely ending all life on earth. We are not; only our own lives.
