It's exponential. The gap between 200k years ago and 10k years ago is pretty similar to the gap between 20k years ago and 1k years ago, or the difference between 2k years ago and 100 years ago. On a logarithmic scale, same distance, roughly the same delta in terms of the technology available

Which is why I think it's wild people want to throw on the brakes now that we're affecting the entire earth. I mean I understand that it seems like we've ended up in a bad spot ecologically if you only take the last 100 years into account. But why stop right on the most toxic version of humanity? Let's push forward to our solarpunk future as soon as possible.
