The majority of people live in cities - and a growing majority.

I've never seen a glacier before, have you?

Yeah. Hiked on and around them in PNW mountains.

And?

Good for you getting that in before they disappear, probably got to see the night sky also, you can tell your grandchildren about that.

Glaciers have never been accessible to most people.

The night sky has, until recently.

Are you sure? Most people live in urban centers the last few generations and see few if any stars in the night sky

my comment is pushback against claiming "this generation" as uniquely doomed, and doomerism in general
