    Do you? Cause it sounds like you dont think Im wrong, rather that you want me to be.

    Its not a normal response to have someone who works with the thing your concerned about telling you its not as bad as youve heard and you call them naive and young.

      Honestly no, I hope humans destroy themselves before we can spread to other planets.

      People a lot smarter than you or I have been arguing about this for decades. Have you read the Limits to Growth? Do you think we will magically become a sustainable circular economy before crop failure starts to happen? We’re gonna capitalism our way right off the cliff baby.

        Ill be honest, people a lot smarter than you and I have mathematically proven we can easily maintain crop production for the demonstrated planetary carrying capacity of the human species. They teach you this when you study macrobio.

        Its not going to happen under capitalistic economies, obviously, but capitalism is a fucking young and fragile system. It will break centuries before the planet even comes close to breaking.

        Seriously, you need to stop reading doom and gloom popsci bullshit. Its filling your head with nihilistic statistical manipulations and flat lies.

        We are in trouble in the same way your grades were in trouble in high school the night before a midterm you didnt study for. You need to cram to pass this test, but failing the test doesnt mean you will be expelled and then shot out back like a lame horse. It doesnt even mean youre going to fail the class yet.

        Im not kidding, stressing about this is literally what I do for a living. When the person who spends both professional and personal hours actively studying this mess is telling you its not as bad as youre freaking out over, maybe listen to them.
