They overemphasize the effects of climate change while ignoring everything good and green people are doing which is literally countering said climate change through mitigation and adaptation.
Overemphasizing the death of all life on the planet? Really? Wow that seems hard to do. Thank goodness the ‘good and green’ people are literally countering said destruction, so that everything’s good and nice again.
Although mitigation isn’t recovery it’s just making it less bad. And adaptation might be good but it’s also inevitable given the dying environment so I’m not sure we should credit that as a win.
I guess burning tons of fuel to crank out some bitcoins for Elmo is okley-fuckin-dokely! I was a grade A moron to doubt it!
You’re wrong about which part survives. If anything does, it’s literally not even metaphorically humans and anything we deem important to us. Everything else is what gets the axe lol.
Then you’ve missed the entire point of the original saying. It insinuates humanity will be extinct but some little rodent will survive. Or a lizard, or insects, etc.
Humanity is too good for anything the earth will ever throw at it short of a supervolcano. Extrasolar threats are about the closest thing that could take us out and we are A-OK as far as radiation bursts from nearby exploding stars go. That just leaves asteroids large enough to turn the entire crust into molten rock. In which case all life except potentially the tiniest deep in the crust or reintroduced through contaminated space materials will survive.
Humanity will survive the rest. Us poors might not, but humanity will lol.

Don’t worry mate, life is resilient and will endure.
Humanity, not so much.

How can I be wrong about which part survives?
Life will go on, maybe not humanity but life will endure. If I was wrong and humanity survives, surely life would also have survived?

Yeah i see this a lot. Hilarious.
I don’t get the joke I’m afraid.
Mmmm.
?
Sure, except for all the species for which we’ve caused extinction.
