The only way Earth isn't environmentally fucked is if we become an interplanetary species, move 70% of humans elsewhere, and designate most of Earth as a sort of National Park. Nobody is gonna clean up their act during their own industrial revolutions and no one can credibly make them 🤷

1. going to mars is psyops. it won't make us multiplanetary. it'll make us two-planetary. anything more is a physics problem not an engineering one. all and all, there's so much more we could do with engineering alone, but the real bottleneck is physics. 2. static thinking in a dynamic world: cleaning a river 100 years ago would've costed 10x of now for 1/10th of the results. because we can't clean the earth now doesn't mean we never will be able to. (not a reason for unnecessary pollution). that being said. i hope we go to mars soon. i hope we become multiplanetary.

"cleaning a river 100 years ago would've costed 10x of now for 1/10th of the results." Other way around, restoring a river from damming and other damage is costing upwards of x10 from what we paid to create that dam many decades ago years ago.
