You mix completely different arguments just to justify that you are right.

>The world, a couple hundred years ago: Our world is everlasting.

No one ever said that...not even the bible ;)

>There have been huge technical advances. Incredible progress.

>But equally huge destruction and incredible externalities.

That like saing Aircraft's are incredible but they make pollution...it says absolutely nothing.

>You seem to enjoy fireworks.

>>it says absolutely nothing.

Except to describe the entire history of the last, maybe 150-300 years, and the dilemma of the next 150-300 years.

And, anyway, I enjoy a good firework, but I never said I wanted our world to be one.

A desert is the opposite of a firework.
