    destroy the planet

    We’re not destroying the planet, we’re destroying our offspring (and those of many other species). The planet will still be covered in life after we’re gone.

      This is a point that needs pushing more.

      Save the planet is not only false. But less impactful than just save humankind.

      Trying to convert humanity back to low meat diets (again a much easier sell and the real issue is mass production). It is more likely if people are convinced it is their children to great grand children that will Suffer/Die/never happen. Rather than suggesting all life will end.

      The sun god will still burn. Just like you did after the last great extinction.

      Sorry could not resist the silly joke. I’ll go hide in a bottle now
