@Daojoan My best guess is that our negative evolutionary traits, which only had localised ramifications in the past, are now existential threats to our species, amplified, as they are, by modern technology.

We’re still shortsightedly seeking the next source of glucose and the next hit of dopamine but doing so on a scale that threatens the viability of our entire habitat.

In other words, we have 21st century technology driven by 1st century thinking and that is a recipe for extinction.
