Consider the following, though:

Advertising is a huge fucking scam, and only worth about 1-5% of the money it generates

Personally I’m the opposite, I feel like even if we can’t stop CO2 emissions fast enough, there is always geoengineering to counteract it, and human brain uploading will probably be a thing by the start of next century? At which point humanity can basically live until the heat death of the universe, because of how durable electronics can be compared to squishy human flesh.

Bit late to this, but I have a couple of big ones:

1. Once brain uploading becomes a thing, the code/data of an uploaded person should be sacrosanct. You can’t look at it, you can’t fuck with it, unless they give you consent to do so.

2. Once it becomes a possibility, every human should either move off-world or revert back to a hunter-gatherer existence. Humans in general have been a disaster for the biosphere, but especially once we started settling down and farming, and even more so once industrialisation became a thing. Earth needs time to heal from the damage we have done to it, and that means most people + all our industry and technology fucking off into space. Namely into space colonies, big rotating cans of steel the size of large islands, filled with dirt, air, water and artificial biospheres.
