    Oh, you can forget all of those things. Just get up now and go outside. Take everything in. Because soon it will never be like that ever again. Climate change is going to destroy so much.

      Yup. If the infinite growth machine can’t make a profit fixing climate change, it simply won’t be fixed.

      No amount of home recycling, power saving, water reduction, etc. you can do will offset the pollution generated by companies in the pursuit of money.

        It’s honestly too late to fix most of it. The environment will continue to get worse for at least a few hundred years due to the damage already caused. Even if we stopped all emissions, pollution, habitat destruction, and overexploitation of natural resources today, we will still see catastrophic changes to the ecosphere we evolved in.
