    Others have been fairly random. GRBs sterilizing half the planet, asteroid impacts, simple microbiological species fighting for resources whilst unknowingly making their environments unlivable, etc., etc.

    In this case, the writing has been on the wall for decades, completely preventable, but here we are barrelling into it head first none-the-less. Dumber indeed.

        Sorry, I was absolutely dehumanizing and generalizing us as a species. Individually, you’re absolutely right, but the people who need to make the tough decisions to save us all won’t make them and will selfishly take us all into the end with them. Differentiating the subjective opinions and values, at the end of the day, doesn’t really matter.
