> this sort of "it's over, there's only doom ahead" is, IMO, counterproductive and hurts the efforts to help the environment more than it helps.

Says who? We've been parroting the opposite message ("there's still time! go solar! electric cars!") is CLEARLY not working.

I'm a climate change doomer, in that I'm certain our children will live in a very different world than us, and there's a real (10%+?) chance of total environmental collapse in our lifetimes. The positive feedback loops are inescapable.

The science is the science...who are we to lie to people hoping that the lie somehow inspires mass coordinated change?
