It does sadden me though. The human race could have really been something great, I mean really fucking special. It's plainly evident yet somehow we massively fucked up and managed to change a whole planet's ecosystem/environment to the point that it can't sustain us any more.

the answer to the question of how this happened is to ask who are 'we'. The majority of the world's population has not benefited from the industrialisation that has produced the CO2. For the enrichment of a tiny minority over a period of two to three hundred years a whole species will suffer and those who have gained the least will be the first (are already the first) to pay the price. It is not, sadly, a case of people simply reaping what they sow. The death of the human race will be one big Pyrrhic victory for the values and ideas of Socialism and Internationalism.
On which note I say Good Night and Good Luck
