I just don’t really understand the point of the question. I care about “the planet” because I feel empathy for my fellow humans and would like to leave a healthy environment for the future generations to come. I won’t leave any offspring. So when I die, my linage ends. After I die I will stop experiencing anything. And yet I still care. But I only care because my brain is wired to feel empathy.
I don’t care at all that the universe might have no one to experience it when our sun blows up. As statistically unlikely as that might be.

I’ve come to terms with the fact we will never be able to understand and manipulate physics to the point of interstellar travel.
