The overall message here I think is: action is still necessary, but the reality is that we're too caught up in politics and economics and we missed our chance at mitigation. Now we need to look to how to cope with what's coming.

It will keep getting worse, yes, but we can still impact how many generations down the line that will keep happening. That's what's hard at this point: giving a shit about descendants we will never meet.

    Look again i get it, im with you

    For me, though, my descendents are right here in front of me. And what's keeping me going, personally, steers closer to anger than hope. They will suffer. My kids.

    Humans 100-200+ years from now will know nothing else. Im sorry for them. But im here now, and now is a time to face facts. Civilization is going to end, for all intents and purposes. Our world, the human world, is dying, and we won't be able to keep up except as mammals 65mil years ago did, hiding in holes.

    What we should be doing now, is avenging the future.
