I mean, evolution kind of might work around the ozone layer being gone. People just need to have children before the skin cancer kills them and that’s totally possible. Might be good if the parents don’t die when the kids are too little.
Evolution really doesn’t care about your personal well-being and won’t help you. It might “evolve” the human race to get children earlier in their teens, because everybody over 30 is dead from skin cancer and microplastics, but maybe the better solution is to use something different in hair spray and fridges.
Goddammit it’s real.

Oh my god, I thought this was an Onion meme.
2023 too, and not a cherry-picked misquote.
WTF.
When I was a kid, I asked a science teacher: “Why don’t humans just evolve to adapt to the ozone layer being gone”
The teacher responded: “That’s not how evolution works…” (and then explained it)
An UNDER-PAID TEACHER can understand that, are these journalists just kids who never paid attention in class?
