Humans don't have the technology to manipulate society to deal with the climate crisis. But then we can't get a four-day work-week in the US because a handful of billionaires oppose it.

So far, we're showing about the impetus that cyanobacteria had when it was their turn to kill off the planet. It would have been better if they could have stopped multiplying but they couldn't help themselves. We can't help ourselves either, just with extra steps to reach the same position.
