to 'defend the environment'. I was responding to your remarks about the earth having no future at all.

Climate changes are certainly occurring, and it's unknown as to whether anything we do can change that, although I'd certainly like to see us try. Otherwise we'll have to adapt to new conditions.

Since we don't know what the new conditions will be, nor what adaptations we'd have to make, it's also unknown if it's good or bad.

Either way, it's a tad early to write off the entire planet.

And it is neither a 'thin slice of humanity' nor anthrocentric.
