We have known we have all been dieing since the day we were born. If you have not been told at some point you are going to die. The fear is whether we are all going to do it at the same time for the same reason. Yes it is scary but we can not die one day sooner than we are supposed to and that is probably why most people don't have long drawn out conversations about it. The only reason I think any one even entertains these conversation is because there is something big, looming and at some point deadly that we know is happening but the reality is the same big questions still can't be answered when, where and how. When - sooner than we think ( there isn't a general consensus from every thing I have read which is quite a bit hundreds of studies and as many hours) If I were to average every thing I have read I would say some where between 20 - 60 years for really bad shit to happen not necessarily the Apocalypse but that could be the case ( if you take in extremes it's what are you doing next sunday because I wouldn't plan anything to 100 years from now) . Where - prospectively wherever your living something bad can happen. How - well the how gets a little more fun that could be any thing starvation, suffocation, radiation, disease, drowning , just overheating, I even read once bursting into flames (that's one of those extremes), dehydration and any other way you can think of. My point is exactly what are we supposed to accept past what we already know that some day we are all going to die. See If I am going to die tomorrow I don't want to spend all day today talking about it. As far as acceptance that's a load of BS no one really accepts death because you can only do it once. You can get comfortable with it and some people can even look forward to thier idea of it but accept what it is ,on some psychological level ; we can't because we don't know what it really is to go through it. We only know what it looks like. Yes we should fight potentially horrible out comes with all that we have right down to any bitter end but at some point you have to live in the right now because technically that's all you ever had. I will reiterate that climate change is an inevitability and death along with it and I believe we should fight to push it farther out, down or however we choose to describe it. but I'm not ready to hop on some death march on a death knell until it's actually time to die
