Ship of Theseus
We view our world as a Ship of Theseus, thinking we can replace, substitute, synthesize, and simulate our way around the problems of human-induced climate change, overpopulation, and the massive destruction to earth’s biodiversity. Only now are we awakening to the realization that what is lost is forever changed—as fires consume our forests, floods swamp our towns, hurricanes wash away our shores, and droughts parch our crops. We cannot hope to restore this ship to its original but we must mitigate the damage to salvage what remains.
