How are you going to get people to agree to "live sustainably" over thousands of years?

I think the answer is that if you don't, then there won't be people after "over thousands of years", or even after a few generations, anyway.

I mean because this is after the apocalypse we're talking about, yes? Either people figure out how to restart civilisation in a sustainable manner or they die out after a short while.

Better question, if you can do that, why haven't you already?
Because we're before the apocalypse?
