On a recent Saturday, some 100 volunteers gathered on a popular beach in the Japanese port city of Yokohama, wading in the shallows to plant strands of light-green eelgrass on the seabed.

You are not wrong, but we could stop the emissions if we really wanted to or at least curtail to a level that we are not increasing the temperature. We just have to collective want this outcome as we absolutely have the tech and the money to do so. Sadly, we are marching right into disaster and likely food system collapse. I guess that only good news of that outcome is we will suddenly be putting out less green house gases as there will be less of us.
Our species will survive, even though our garbage ‘modern’ civilization gets forcibly rebooted
100% agree. It is not just those who are exploiting the masses, but it is the masses that walk right into it and worse idolize the broken exploitative systems. Doing my best to skirt around the mess inbound.
Time to reboot civilization, like in the many games and books
Agreed. I really think that we are rebooting and is one of the reasons there is suddenly so much conflict in the world. The powers that be feel their power shifting and are in the early stages of their death throes. AI is shifting power. I mean IT has been shifting power with the Internet for decades and despite the enshitification, it still has rocked established powers. AI is amplifying it and thank goodness we have powerful open source AI as it will be the enemy the powerful will have a very hard time attacking. I believe we are heading into a new civilization, but there is also a possibility that it actually just ends completely. Perhaps the Great Filter is a real barrier. I suspect not, but I thought people would have embraced decentralization and we have not so I am clearly out of touch with humanity. I mean I am not neurotypical so that makes sense.
