I don't think the fact that we are making the planet uninhabitable for us is emphasized enough.

uninhabitable in what sense?

[–] zalgotext@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

In the sense that we, humans, won't be able to inhabit our planet, the Earth

In the sense that overfishing is devastating the ecosystem of the oceans. Not to mention we're killing off bees and we aee going to he in some deep shit if bees become extinct.

that doesn't scream uninhabitable to me yet. i think humans are creative enough to come up with solutions i.e. manual pollination. bees being extinct wouldn't make the world uninhabitable as far as I know
