Humans of the year 2021,

Despite the fact that your space industry will take off in the coming years, you'll soon realize that your efforts to colonize inhospitable worlds must be redirected to ensuring your survival on Earth.

You can no longer satisfy the insatiable appetite for prosperity at all costs while denying the impending environmental catastrophe.

Make no mistake. Your world is destabilizing. You must change your message from sustainability to stability. The word "sustain" means "keep up" or "keep working," but your climate is far from sustainable. You must first stabilize the collapse of your connected ecosystems.

Changing the word "sustainability" to "stability" will help you set more concrete targets that are more understandable to all people. This will put you on the road to global cooperation while also putting an end to the politics that have left you exhausted and complacent.
