I’d settled to a similar conclusion for a while, but I could not ignore how we seem to be approaching our planet’s thermodynamic limits. We have disrupted the natural flow and cycles of energy to the point of, I think, a global climate refugee crisis in my lifetime. Its arguably already begun.

We’ve “simply” burned too much, and too fast, low entropy fuel and our Sun-Earth system can only expel so much thermal energy, and increasingly less so as greenhouse gases continue to accumulate and ice caps melt. We’re pressure cooking ourselves.
