"It seems that we live in a very dark time, and we do. The human race has been on a very destructive path for quite a while, and we have these hideous weapons and hideous powers that can turn that destructive path into true cataclysm.

So, realistically, what can a rando do?
We can do what we can do to stop making it worse. Work togetther to change our habits. Do what we can to make do with less and feel good about it. “Every dollar is a vote”, definitely. Work with the people who know what’s in store for them, like farmers. Skip a trip now and then. Use mass transit more. Keep improving our home, if we have one, so it’s better-insulated. Use better options for heating (wear more clothes instead of burning more fuel) and cooling. Stop admiring consumption and buy lasting, healthier products. Walk away from wasteful consumption, the investors will turn elsewhere unless companies respond.
We can keep in mind the world we’re making, and how we will best to live in it. And become living examples of alternatives that are inevitable.
Sure we would also all be under water by 2005 or something.
