No, like the aggregate

It may sound heartless but we can make new people.

We can’t make an uninhabitable environment habitable.

Well technically, space is an uninhabitable environment and people can temporarily live there fine

Well technically I would say that people aren't "living in space" I would say they are living in a space station.

Our environment is rapidly becoming uninhabitable though carbon dioxide emissions. Venus, here we come.

True but I don’t understand how an engineer can design a safe nuclear power plant for a rapidly uninhabitable environment.

It might be the only option though.

People like to latch onto things thinking they are an obvious perfect solution without honestly recognising the costs.

Not very comforting.

Just one bad accident can destroy so much more than aircraft

There were a lot of people, companies, agencies, and policies that failed in the 737 Max debacle. It was a systemic failure and not some random, individual, isolated event.

And yet overall its still very safe to go into a modern airplane.
