Unfortunately, we can, and most likely will, keep on like this. At least until we are extinct as a species. I'm sorry we will take so many other species down with us.

On the otherhand, we, and our little piece of real estate, are less than insignificant when measured against the incomprehensible vastness of the cosmos. It can be comforting to realize the universe does not revolve around our belly buttons.
