    We are nature.

    Were the cyanobacteria responsible for the oxygen crisis guilty? Plants contributed to the first of the five major recognized extinction events: https://www.sciencealert.com/the-arrival-of-tree-roots-may-have-triggered-mass-extinctions-in-the-ocean

    The first major difference with us is that we’re capable of being aware of how our presence changes the environment, and therefore of changing our behavior. So I think you think both too highly and not well enough of us.

      Bacteria don’t have the capability to be aware of what they were doing. Neither do plants. People do. That’s all that matters.

        Yes, that’s my entire point. We have the capacity to change what we’re doing and we are. I’m sorry it’s not happening fast enough to satisfy you, but it is happening

              Too little too slow too late.
              20% reduction is still 6 trillion metric tons of greenhouse gases

              Lol it mentions carbon capture.
              You should be getting angry instead of desperately clinging to bullshit hope.

                Why not both? Anger doesn’t require hopelessness
