Maybe. Maybe not. This really is the make-or-break century, where we see if we can wrangle industry back into the natural world. I mean, it's worth at least trying. What's the point of living at this moment in history if we don't try? If we just assume it's a forgone conclusion? "Damned by our own inaction" is such a waste of potential. And if it really isn't possible, then at least we'll know as much for having tried.
