yes but not while splitting the atom. I mean sure we can just not utilize our cognitive ability to understand the universe and live in harmony that way but boy it would have been grand to utilize our most precious of species abilities in a responsible way.
indigenous people have destroyed plenty of ecosystems. much of the mega fauna was hunted to extinction by them. humans have always been destructive of their environment to some degree, becuse we’re incredibly good and exploiting the environment. the difference is now we can destroy shit on a much bigger scale…

So much lost potential, spoiled by humans insatiable greed.
