Back in the 70s, Rachel Carson posited that it was probably already too late to turn back the effects of air pollution and poisoning of our oceans,

I feel ya, but try not to give in to that feeling, as it's also the last step in the oil companie's PR playbook; when it's finally coming knowledge, to say "well, yes it was our fault but it's too late to do anything about it "

Well it's not a very positive outlook, but I've heard it from scientists more than from big oil and gas (that it's too late to turn back these effects). I"m not saying we can't try to mitigate these things going forward, maybe we can make huge changes by taking small steps toward cleaner energy sources.
