I don't plan to live forever, but I do go to the doctor to check if something may affect my short and middle term health, and try to follow his advice for short and middle term recommendations, from taking some medicine for some present problem to exercise and eat healthy for the not long term future. Putting the extremes as the two options frame the discussion as having only two unreasonable alternatives. Worrying and taking action to avoid the worst of climate change won't ensure our very long term survival, but we are expected to survive a few centuries more at the very least. Its like reaching 40 and do everything in our hands to kill ourselves what the civilization is doing.
