7 years? That's a pretty old meme. We have already done irreparable damage and we could only mitigate it at this point.
Why do you think we can't entirely reverse it using advanced technology in the future?
First, what makes you think we can? It's a strong claim to put forth without evidence.
Second, I won't be there in the future, so I'd like things not get too bad in the meantime.
There is a shocking amount of people on Lemmy that just simply seem to believe that science literally is magic and can do anything with enough money behind it.
No facts needed. No study in the field. And won't even take the word of specialists and actual scientists, cause they just feel right in their heart and the world/Internet has made them feel like that's enough.
Maybe it's over optimism to not be depressed but gosh is it annoying.
