It’s almost entirely what they mean, if not completely.
Humans largely don’t give a shit about the planet, only themselves, despite having the capacity to be better. To me, that almost makes what we are reaping eyes wide open, after eviscerating entire ecosystems (and other humans who lacked net worth or a flag, especially the ones whose culture lived in sustainable harmony with nature, they had to die) to build strip malls to feed our beloved sociopath’s greed disease feel fair to me.
Oh woe is us! The droughts, the hurricanes, the famines, what did we do to this planet to deserve this?! Fuck them animals we’re taking out with us by the way, the ones we didn’t already drive to extinction bulldozing the rainforest and the like, but oh woe is us!
“The planet is fine. The people are fucked.”
Climate change will directly kill some people due to heat. Far more deaths will come from fights and wars and from lack of food and water.
It’s almost like “the people” are part of what people mean when they talk about “saving the planet”
