I think instead of bending the knee to the idea of fatigue, it’s more important to accept that humans really are screwing up things on a massive scale faster than ever. Plastic straws, chemical sunscreens, gasoline, etc are all very recent inventions. It’s not unreasonable to look at massive unprecedented changes in the world and conclude that some of these things that came into widespread existence within recents decades is also causing massive destruction that only began in recent decades.
