Our survival will depend on the technology to recreate the ecosystems we are loosing in the mass 6th extinction.
Drones are being created to pollinate, like the bees use to do, is but one example.
Hubris?
Isn't that the point of those proclaiming climate change? Use technology now to stop it?

If you think you can change the ever-evolving climate, you are seriously-deceiving yourself. It will do as it pleases. We can't even do something simple like snuff out a hurricane.
Making the argument that climate change does not exist is futile, imo, because the science is in.
Whether or not man is making huge contributions that make an impact or not ... that will be debated forever.
However, even taking man out of the equation, evolution happens regardless, so the point being now, how to survive and are we smart enough to pull it off.
Side note: People talk about the heat of the sun, but I very seldom see any one refer to the heat that is in the center of the earth. We are surrounded by heat; that effects our climate ... the difference between us and the dinosaurs, people will see it coming. But stop it ... I don't see how.
Well, there hasn’t been normal temps ever. The planet is still cooling since the big collision that brought the water and life to this planet eons ago.
The Earth is cooling, not warming. That is a fact. In untold years from now this planet will be a cold rock.
...tens of billions of years in the future (and the Sun too). But only about 2 billion years from now the sun, well on its way to becoming a red giant 250 times its present size, will have boiled away the Earth's oceans and killed everything on the planet down to the microbes.
The 1st Commandment of Global Warming is that the climate of the globe has been constant for billions of years and would have continued to be constant if not for human interference....other 8 to come.
This again?... Here is something to mull over...We are only 4 degrees above a temperature that would cause glaciation.
All life on Earth owes its existence to the sun. Similarly, how warm or cool the Earth becomes depends very strongly on two things: how much sunlight reaches the planet, and how much of the warmth generated by sunlight is trapped here.
The sun is now the center of the universe and space?
