Come on guys, it's our turn to remedy to this disaster and to make the world a better place!

We can totally do it. Let's work togheter and let's work hard, there's nothing more beautiful than to think of possible solutions that would make us all live better.

Maybe we can. But climate preservation is clearly not working: Humanity is not disciplined enough, not capable of working together enough and too focused on short term gains.

I think our only hope for optimism lies in climate engineering and full-on terraforming, it's more our style. But of course, it's about just as scary and can go totally wrong.

We are but we have to reach absolute tipping point first we only turn back from the edge when we're right on it. That has always been how governments operate.

Up till the Cuban missile crisis the American military were all about using nukes in every possible situation for in even a small conflict. After the crisis they started to back off from that policy. The insanity of it was always clear, but until we actually got to the edge no one was prepared to act.
