One day the Universe will die. One day the Sun will swallow the Earth. One day Humans will be extinct. One day you will die.
Why waste your life worrying about death, when it is just a natural part of life. The only reason I worry about fixing many of the issues today, is because we caused them. But really, I don't think people care enough to struggle now in order to preserve tomorrow.
Like everyone cries "what about the children" but in the end we really don't care because for the most part we'll be dead before long and its their problem.
I doubt the Cyanobacteria really cared about the mass extinction it created by spewing oxygen into the atmosphere - but it gave rise to land life. The meteor killed most of the Dinosaurs but Sharks are still here, Trees are still here.
I don't worry about mankind, I worry about life. And even if we screw everything up and leave the planet in a smoldering compost heap.. life is born in a compost heap.
I will fight to stop climate change, I will support activists, I will do what little one person can do, but in the end I am not going to let it keep me up at night. Humanity will die one day. But as Dr. Malcolm said - Life will find a way.
