lost me there. complete ecosystem destruction for sure, but our ability to actually destroy the planet itself - eehhhh… the rock that birthed us will live long past our story.
we’re certainly in for a bumpy ride, I hope for the best but at this point, feel it’s disingenous to feign optimism.
I mean it feels so utterly unlikely, yet we really do posses the power to eliminate or close to eliminate all life on this planet. When you look at who decides this and realize they could not decide if masks were good or bad for the spread of an airborne illness, there is more than a non zero chance we are going to destroy life on Earth. The planet of course as you stated will truly live on.
I agree that feignign optimism does feel disingenuous. The data trend is not optimistic.
oh yeah we totally possess the ability to wreck the ecosystem. that’s all it’ll take to end us and damn near most of the life on the planet. And you’re correct, as a species, we don’t make great decisions.

Really, really big nukes? Idk lol
Or just around the remaining know thousands of them.
no but seriously, even if we used every a and h bomb they EVER made, we would only ablate a tiny percentage of the crust.
we’re not destroying the planet on our own, we’ll need help.
