It's ironic that we are searching for life on other planets when we are eradicating the life right here on ours.

- MattGaiser 2y agoNot really. A small minority care about space life. A small minority care about conservation.
- FollowingTheDao 2y ago> A small minority care about conservation. A small minority care, until it is too late. The everybody cares. It is the job of the scientists and governments to help us understand why we should care. But both are captured by oligarchs and people looking for their own power and prestige.
- lukan 2y agoAllmost everyone cares about conservation .. but about conserving the immediate life around them, e.g. their life and the close people around them. Climate change is still too abstract for most people to be a real concern. If they are cold, coal makes them warm now. I more and more find truth in the simplified statement: "we are little more than confused apes after all" We are capable of so much more .. but it takes time and whether we have the time to evolve some collective consciouss about the bigger problems concerning us all, remains to be seen.
- ywvcbk 2y agoI don’t think we’re eradicating life, just most natural ecosystems and ecological diversity.
- vouaobrasil 2y agoI meant life as in indiviudal lives. Saying what you said is like saying "Stalin didn't eradicate life. Just a few million people."
