Science is a bitch.
We're destroying the planet, no doubt.
It's unfortunate that we likely won't be able to leave this planet and fulfill our galactic 'manifest destiny'.
We're going to die here on this rock...unfortunate, really.
This planet is basically the only bright spot in our otherwise dismal galaxy.
This is the answer to '
if aliens exist, why haven't they visited earth?'...
...and the the answer is, we're in east bum-
as far as our own galaxy is concerned, and our galaxy is one amongst millions of billions...alien civilizations in different galaxies have risen and fallen while we were still learning to use tools here on Earth...
(If scientists can somehow reconcile gravity with quantum mechanics, we might have a chance...)
Is is so important to build some dick pipeline, or to argue about this idiot politician vs. another idiot politician?
We're going to die here on Earth, for no other reason that we can't get along with each other and come to agreement on a common purpose as a species.
But, you know, it's fun to watch the TV...
