The problem was realized decades ago, and yet we've accelerated our use. It's very similar to emissions. If only we had left that thick sludge in the ground, neither of these would be an issue.

I don't think it is as urgent as the media makes it seem. For the media it is all about sensational stories. Yes long term it is something to be concerned about but it isn't something you should freak out over.

Also if it gets bad enough some company will profit from it. If there is money to be had with solutions suddenly you get the best minds working on it.
