Climate change is not existential to humanity, but it is existential to human civilization as we know it.

The climate has wiped out 99.999% of all other species. We are the first who have a chance to avoid being part of that statistic. Not by minimizing our impact on the planet but by maximizing it through climate mastery.

Human civilization has never been as robust as it is now and we have never been as safe from the climate as we are now.
