        I take solace in the fact we generated a lot of value for the top 0.1% while we turned the planet into an uninhabitable wasteland!

        Did we ? Some species managed millions of years, we’re at what 100k-150k or so, seems a very shitty run really.

        Jokes aside, I suppose we’re not witnessing the end of humanity, just the end of this civilisarion. Pity we’re taking so many other species down and leaving the place in a fucking mess.

          In all seriousness, I think the reason why we are in the situation we are in is that, for about 50 years, people have ignored the worse scenarios and paid attention only to the ones that aren’t that bad. That isn’t the correct way to manage risk.
