I thought it was interesting really. Nature is brutal if you don't respect it.

Well it us natural. You say it is doom and gloom. Do we just put our heads in the sand and pretend it isn't happening?

My thinking is it is all too late.

Too many people on earth, too much consumerism. I think the damage has been done. Things like this will become more common. Too late now to change people's mindsets.

Yes, you can't have eight billion people on the planet without affecting it. What we should be doing is adapting, as mankind always has, not trying to play Canute. As David Attenborough said before he went eco, the problem is population.
