Unfortunately it seems like humanity's intent on choosing the latter option. I worry about the US gaining a president who doesn't believe in the reality of climate change, because then the blind denial will go right to the top of the political pyramid as well as the top of many powerful corporations. And it will encourage other countries to lag even further in tackling the problem. We're already way too late in taking action; we don't want sheer stupidity to hold us back further. That's not even to engage with the problem of the US military being run by a hot-headed egotist with a misplaced can-do attitude, a woefully simplistic style of thinking and no trace of diplomacy. The climate change will only get us if the wars don't get us first.We will need to run things completely differently because if we don't, we are just going to end up killing ourselves off...
