Like so many things (e.g., global warming, rise of fascism perhaps, ethnic cleansing in Occupied Palestine), I feel like this era will be remembered as "the evidence was there but 'we' failed to act to mitigate disaster era," "the head in the sand era," or "the extreme selfishness with respect to what we leave to future generations era." Most current power structures - corporations and governments - seem far more focused on staying on an unsustainable course and maximizing profits while they still can rather than planning for tomorrow (beyond hoarding as much today as possible). AFAIK no large-scale farming operation uses crop rotation. Such simple and effective strategies are eschewed for pumping more chemicals in the ground and on crops to try and maintain monoculture farming productivity, which is really a 'sweep things under the rug' approach
