This is a worthy article, thanks, Medium, for highlighting it. Ultimately we, each of us and all of us, own the problem. I don’t know how much free will we do or don’t have (Stanford Professor Robert Sapolsky makes an argument we have little or none) — but if we are to thrive or even survive as a species we have some complex challenges … by way of example the ones outlined in this article or our shared literal environment on what has become a fairly crowded planet in a ordinary solar system on the fringe of a fairly ordinary spiral galaxy in the midst of a known enormous cosmos. The “gut” (consciousness, psyche, soul, etc.) changes required probably won’t be easy or comfortable.
