a nice reminder that the planet is gonna be just fine
Planet is gonna be fine pf
I’m just echoing George Carlin’s bit: “the planet is fine; the people are fucked”. There’s almost nothing that people can do that could possibly be worse than the Permian extinction or the Chicxulub impact. Regardless of what people do, the planet will be fine. The planet has survived far worse and come out just fine.
Whatever we do to combat climate change, it isn’t for the planet. It’s for the people.
Just as if there were a Cretaceous space program, redirecting the asteroid wouldn’t have been for the planet. It would have been for the dinosaurs. The planet was fine, and it made way for us.
