The #FermiParadox goes like this:
1. Among billions of #stars intelligent life capable of interstellar travel should have evolved, given the human rate of evolution, but,
2. There is no evidence of this fact. Why?
Some, speculate that it is the #nature of intelligent life to #destroy itself.
For example, based on #anthropologic studies, Adam Frank posited that climate change induced by "#energy intensive" civilizations may prevent #sustainability within such #civilizations, thus explaining the #paradoxical lack of #evidence for #intelligent #extraterrestrial #life.
In a word, #ClimateChange.
I'll add, the #population required to support sufficiently #advanced #technologies are such that they effectively create a state of #techno #anarchy, #ungovernable to any common #purpose but selfish #innovation and #profit #motive.
This, is #state #humankind currently finds itself. An #experiment, that will end with a whimper in #ironic confirmation of the #Fermi #paradox.

"#Adaptation and #resilience are complex multidimensional concepts that have been interpreted differently according to diverse disciplinary approaches.There is some general agreement about resilience but, above-all, there is a lack of cross-disciplinary collaboration that could provide an enriched understanding of its
meaning and purposes in precise situations."
