If it is the fate of every successful species to wipe itself out, climate change looked to Margulis like a plausible candidate for the method by which Homo sapiens would achieve that end. The upside, she told me, was that the impacts would be relatively confined and short-lived. In a few millennia, the world would look much the same, except that people probably wouldn’t be living in it.
