[quote=Anonymous]Alas, it's a function of evolution.  Too many people on earth.  Too much progress.  There's a balance in nature and we've made it so that's gone.  You can't save everyone.  You can't cure every disease.  You can't make everything so convenient the energy it takes to maintain that convenience is overwhelming.  All this is self inflicted yet why wouldn't we naturally want these advances?  I think people are nuts when they talk about our ability to get climate change under control.  If we could have we would have.  It's not about spending 100 trillion dollars to do it differently.  It's about the fact we are totally out of balance.  I personally wouldn't want the lifestyle change realistically it would mean in order to impact the change required to slow down the damage.  I'm pretty sure you wouldn't either.  Easy to say use less, eat this not that and all- but the difference in lifestyle would not be pretty.  We wouldn't each of us be able to travel as much as we do.  We wouldn't be using so much i on do the conveniences we do daily.  I think the answer will likely be either toms of people dying and a reset in civilization, space travel to export some folks out of earth or if we are lucky we build infrastructure that will shield us from weather.  Essentially not be outside anymore - technology to keep us safe but I don't know that we can manipulate Mother Nature so while we can survive, that life is all about staying indoors.  Virtual reality experience of the outdoors I guess.  It's a matter of time.[/quote]
