The phrase "global warming" has been damaging to what the actual environmental movement should be about. The Earth has endured and overcome many global catastrophes that have wiped out species, it would be arrogant to think that humans will permanently damage the planet. No, what the environmental movement should advertise more is that it's about self preservation of our relatively comfortable lifestyles, and peace that people have enjoyed in the last several decades.

At the rate we're going in our exploitation of the planet's resources we will head to societal collapse, either from the destruction of our current living environments, or from the infighting we will have when we compete over limited resources. It will be like the dark ages after the fall of Rome.
