I understand what's happening all over, but those are the small collapses I'm saying will eventually all string together and start to cause wider collapse that we won't be able to stop. Right now, we can still rewild an ecosystem fairly easily, but that won't be feasible when multiple ecosystems are collapsing all around us.
Don't get me wrong, I think we should be in panic mode and start a full redirection of public funds towards serious preservation of natural species and habitats, with carbon sequestration implementations, both short and long term solutions, and a serious jobs program to implement all of the above.
But it won't happen because the public is too removed from the problem. Most people haven't felt any real impact, and we probably won't be able to get massive legislation passed until that point, and I fear it will be too late once they do.
