    @petergleick Yes, vandalism along several dimensions including a moral one. This quote: “It’s morally wrong, in my opinion, for us not to be doing this,” he says. Whew! 😰

    @simsa04 yes. and on another social my post elicited this response "Reality is what exists outside our perceptions. There are absolute rules about how this reality exists independent from our biases." -- this falls into my thinking-about-thinking bucket -- irony intended.

    > Climate change isn’t a problem that can be solved by summoning the “will.” It isn’t a problem that can be “fixed” or “conquered,” though these words are often used. It isn’t going to have a happy ending, or a win-win ending, or, on a human timescale, any ending at all.

It is the sequel to the Hugo Award-winning novel The Three-Body Problem in the trilogy titled "Remembrance of Earth's Past", but Chinese readers generally refer to the series by the title of the first novel.
