In my defense it was the start of a new millennium, Internet seemed like it would democratize knowledge access and speed up development of sustainable technologies in all fields. Cold war was behind us, so it seemed like history was done and we could enjoy some stability after a bloody XX century.
Nah.
The good part is that I won’t be around much longer to see it all go to hell in a handbasket.
The bad part is that my kids will.
Sorry about that, kids, I honestly did the best I could.
Technically you could have not had kids. But I get it, I’m in the same boat!

But yeah, I should have known better.
We could also be wrong that war will break out and that climate change won’t be surmountable. I think we’re all hoping that’s the case!
I hope you are right.
