We knowingly fucked up and doomed the world (at least for humans to comfortably flourish). So, yeah, I guess we can say that about rainforests too, but that applies to pretty much everywhere.

There is no going back. We already know the climate is fucked for the next century, even if we somehow stop producing 100% of greenhouse gases today.

And maybe add blockchains to the mix to be sure no compute seconds ever go idle
