      If we cure climate change tomorrow and do nothing about garbage/sustainability in packaging, we all still die - its just more disgusting.

      Captain Planet focuses on the entirety of the environment, not just climate. That’s why he whooshes bulldozers into the air in the Amazon.

              The universe “collapsing” has fallen largely out of favor as a theory. The sun isn’t going to explode, at all.

                  That is not accurate for all stars. Our star, for instance, is a yellow dwarf star (Type G Main Sequence). When it runs out of fuel it will briefly swell up as a red giant then collapse into a white dwarf. At no point will it explode because it simply lacks the mass for that type of chain reaction. We have a billion years before this happens, so can literally fly existing rockets elsewhere if need be. A billion years is a long time.

                  Tell me again about my science education lol
