I'll be astounded if we make it to 2050.


What a ridiculous statement.


It makes more sense than you think.

Before 2050 you will know that the Santa Claus that keeps putting food on your table is not real.

Topsoil depletion, groundwater depletion, overfishing, pollinators and insects dying, etc. And best of all: methane permafrost melting.

In the best case scenario we will all end up eating soylent green.
