I minimize my daily commute, recycle most things, that's about it, try not to worry about it too much. The anxiety available to everyone that I reject would be far too expensive for the potential benefit on a personal or global scale. This all started well before I was born and will continue far after I'm dead.

Settle down, we're not fucked. Lots of smart and motivated people have been, are, and will be working on it. (does this justification of inactivity have a formal name?)

Want to join them? Find them first, then prove you have something to offer. It's not an informal team fixing things at the neighborhood level, distributed among internet commenters. It's a huge and complicated inter-related set of disciplines filled with experts running at full steam around the world working with leaders and millions of dollars.
