    the first will lead to the second. we depend on the animals, the oceans, the atmosphere, the plants, the insects, and so on for our own species survival. as those things go extinct or become too extreme for this besides outlier insects and microbes to survive in, we won’t have the supports we need to keep being here. probably not extinction in my own lifetime but i’m closer to a century than to childhood.
