I don't subscribe to the overly pessimistic view that "herp derp the human race is going to end soon!" rhetoric. Don't expect me to see things your way. The real way humans will overcome hardships such as climate change will be through the conscious choice to remain stead-fast and stay proactive in reducing (and reversing) whatever damage we've done so far. All you're doing is allowing the bad players (oil companies, authoritarian dictatorships, corrupt evil people in general) to have their way. You're allowing yourself and other innocents to be run over. Have you no shame or responsibility?

It's all about perspective, I've come to find. In the past decade alone, News headlines have become overwhelmingly negative and biased in comparison to what we had before. In reality, things were a lot worse in the past, but we didn't have the internet for most of human history, so up-to-date information was very hard to come by.
