> Extrapolating a trend and showing disaster looming is much easier (and gets more attention) than recognizing that humans are adaptable and we shouldn't be so negative about humanity's future.
Just yesterday there was an article saying that we've managed to wipe out 60% of the animal populations since 1970, the collapse of the insect bio-mass is also a relatively recent man-made phenomenon and it also looks like man-caused climate change is almost irreversible at this point. Disaster is indeed looming and imho has already started. This is not being "negative" about the future, these are facts happening right now.
