At this point can we really call it a “doomer view” or just reality? We’re several decades late on dealing with this problem and it’s entirely possible we’re gonna miss the boat completely.
Or tell me I’m wrong and show me there’s still hope.
I’d love to tell you that, but I found Deep Adaptation compelling. I don’t think we get out of it without technologies that do not exist, developed with funding that is not prioritized.
Somehow I still manage to be disappointed with the state of things often which means I must have some slight hope that things will stop I guess.

The truth is, most conservation act are built on thebidea that if we just stop damaging earth, it’ll go back to normal.
That would be ideal, but we might have missed that boat.
But, there are also all sorts of industrial carbon sequestration methods we aren’t taking into account.
When we get serious about fixing the environment, we’ll build machines that suck pollution out of the sky and sea.
We’re possibly too late for a passive effort, but we have the option of an active effort to use geo-engineering to fix this.
