Sorry, we're too busy changing the world to be concerned with climate change.

What's the point if it becomes unsustainable for us to live on it

Absolutely. It's incredible how we're slowly marching towards this like lambs to the slaughter. I think the problem is of such a magnitude that most people would rather look away and find some deckchairs to rearrange thinking that it isn't their problem.

The USA pulling out of climate accords also does not help, it gives 100's of millions of people entirely the wrong signals.

More than 350 ppm is not a condition we had, as life as we know it was formed and took place. Now we are over 410ppm.
