    I see the main issue with anything theoretically “sound” is that humans are making the decisions. Human bias, and forgive the drama, make everything worse including science.

    Look at what we’ve done with the environment, introducing invasive species, pet-breeding, colonialism destroying literally tens-of-thousand of years of culture and people because we thought we were “right”.

    There’s an inherent arrogance that’s led us into this mess and only recently some have thought to ask "hey, these people and culture have lived and thrived without disrupting the natural ecosystems, let alone cause measurable changes to the climate - maybe they’re experts in how to survive and nurture this place?

    People will use whatever justification the can readily grab to do incredible destructive things and forgo responsibility by referring to science or religion alike. We can do better.
