My point being, that if you have such a defeatist attitude as Strangelove, that 'only the strong survive and so you might as well just roll over and die, since absolutely *nothing* we do can possibly help' then of course we're just going to die with no effort made. Human beings aren't like that. We will struggle, work, and try again and again and again until the very last breath is drawn from our bodies. We are making efforts to change our destructive ways to our planet Earth. It will take many different new technologies, and utilization of some as old as time like growing our own foods in a backyard garden, but if we keep working towards it we can have a better future for ourselves, or children, our children's children, and our planet.
A beautiful way of thinking Sakura, really, I'm not been sarcastic, but that is the main problem. We struggle to survive, but history showed us that we only did struggled when desperation knocked the door, and while the desperation times weren't around we just acomodated ourselfs and let things flow without concern. And sadly that is our nature, we lose our determination when it's not necessary. And the same goes with the change of the environment, while everything is fine, while something catastrofic doesn't happen, and while we can make good money with our limited resources, nobody will really care about taking drastic measures, and then, when desperation knock the door again, there will be no way back for us, because when the climate changes for good, there is nothing we can do fix it.
