I agree with what you are saying. But of course, time moves forward into a future with or without us. The vision of a continuous growth future forevermore is not realistic for humanity. Nature controls Earth’s biosphere and the future of planetary life. The future is not ours to determine. We will be living and planning future actions in short projections of time (that will continue to get shorter and shorter) from here on out. Human culture will change so that longterm planning is no longer valued because planning will become increasingly futile. Resistance is futile. Nature is our Borg. We will be assimilated into the collective.
