You might be glad to know that the emotions and energy of some persons focus on finding solutions to human-caused problems, like the destruction of the environment. Projects like the international effort of the Norway-Doomsday Vault , private efforts like the Vivos Global Genome Vault, and others in the works provide a ray of for humanity and the animal/plant kingdom it oversees. In the event human wisdom falters in the future, society can reset its mistakes - to reseed and repopulate.
Yes, the plan does not prevent catastrophic events from occurring, and I don't know if anything will ever do, but it does provide a sense of assurance and hope. Humanity's capacity for self-destruction can only be matched by its determination to find a way to survive and prosper in the worst of circumstances. Peace. @fcpway

Are our emotions enough of a reason to support the survival of mankind?
The question would be, are the efforts that are being carried enough to counter the destruction that we are causing? I think not, so I'm not glad that we break a child's legs and then put a cast around it to let it heal. But yeah, a cast is better than no cast; it's just not enough to make me happy about the topic.

As humans, we have that choice - to accept or reject the adequacy of actions/ideas. In this sense, we also decide on quantity - how much of it is required to bring satisfaction or equity. Unfortunately, there are never enough resources to fulfill everyone's needs and wants (We each are so uniquely different). With rare exceptions, most humans abide by greed and fear. Having inherited this survivalist attitudes, it is not strange to see these views reflected in the governance of so many societies that practice destructive, self-serving behaviors at the expense of others or the planet. Still, regardless of how wildly unmanageable humanity becomes due to its nature, I believe there will always be hope for positive change, and any hint, regardless of how small, should be welcome with open arms.
Thank you for allowing me to share. @fcpway
