Real wisdom is to keep going even if you believe we are fucked. Even if organized civilization would collapse, it would be still beneficial to try to cut emissions and fight climate change, to give those left after the fall a chance to rebuild. My doomerism is mostly result of witnessing so many false solution being offered to our problem that seems to convince majority of the population.

I don't need hope to keep going and to act according to my values.
