Following Bartlett's logic, it's a case of do or die (if not, do and die), if not on the level of the individual, then on the level of humankind. People need to start to care for themselves (and others!) on the level of the species. The selfish individualism fostered by the consumer economy and the whole trash heap of economic growth theory needs to thrown overboard first, otherwise the boat will most certainly sink.
Bartlett does not say what to do, exactly. But he strongly implies that the first thing to do is stop having children and the second is to cut consumption sharply.
By 2010, the tar sands will be emitting as much CO2 as all the cars in Canada, while actively destroying the precious forest, which is turned into methane as the vegetation rots.
