I'm not worried about Earth.
Earth will be fine. Give or take a few million years and not much of mankind's adventurism will be left and the ecosystem will have restored itself.
It will just be the end of that whole "mankind" experiment.
- TacticalCoder 3y agoGive or take a few billions years and earth won't be fine. These aren't reasons to not worry about what concerns us directly now. > It will just be the end of that whole "mankind" experiment. Even the universe shall come to standstill eventually, when the last moving photon will stop moving or something. Should we be nihilistic and do nothing because of that?
- esarbe 3y ago> Should we be nihilistic and do nothing because of that? No, not at all. But let's be honest about the stakes. We don't need to save Earth for Earth's sake. We need to save Earth for our own sake. This is not about tree-hugging and kumbaia-singing. This is about the survival of our global civilization.
