Why are you trying to downplay this massive issue at hand is puzzling?! Tf is your objective

Why would you not want the "pendulum to swing back" like saving the planet from catastrophe is not something everyone would benefit from in the long run

But the other side is trying to amplify it and make it sound as horrible as possible.

Because global warming of the kind we are causing/experiencing is quite literally unprecedented in human civilization. We have no method currently feasible at large-scale to undo the damage we've created.

It is going to be horrible, no matter what we do. It does have the potential to be civilization-ending. That's pretty much the end of humans as an advanced species.

If we lose our current level of civilization, we will likely never truly become a space-faring species and will instead end when the Earth does.
