The destruction of the climate.

That's why we have to create a space colony and make multiple planets suitable for life. We cant depend on a single planet's climate, etc.

I agree but you will never get support without doing both. The proponents will be labelled as "rats trying to leave a sinking ship.

Off earth colonisation, despite the claims of some, will required 50-100 of continuous investment to become self sufficient. If the climate crisis is not addressed there will not be a nation state able to support it.

Yes, we have to (individually) contribute to stop climate change, but also should not be on a single planet's climate, etc.
