Re: Some hope for humanity?

we might - just might - wake up and fix the mess we made...

Cheer up! The ozone layer is on a path to recovery, acid rain has dropped across North America and Europe, forests are recovering in North America and Europe (North America is more forested than it has been in decades), waterways are recovering, China's air pollution is dropping, global extreme poverty is down, global literacy rates are up, whale populations are bouncing back, and, until late February of 2022, deaths due to war were at historical lows.

There are challenges ahead, but we've dealt with a lot of other long-term challenges in the last 50 years.
