I think it’s safe to say the whole climate change episode will go down as this era’s “How could they be so stupid or bad like that?!” Like Germans during the Nazis, slave owners in the US, medieval superstitions during the plague etc. All of it will become a lesson in what not to do and how not to think.
Collectively our generation will be marked as that which had all the means and privileges one could hope for but the foresight and wisdom of bricks.
