> it's always wrong

Until it isn't.

Presumably you haven't read 'collapse' by Jared Diamond. Even if you disagree with his argument, you can't disagree with his facts - which are that all prior human civilizations have failed catastrophically, typically with environmental collapse.

Why should we believe that ingenuity will prevail this time, when it has never done before?



I note that you have no response to this.
