Jane Goodall vs. Humans: The Unintelligent Ape Showdown
Jane Goodall, the legendary chimp whisperer and eco-warrior, sadly shuffled off this mortal coil at 91 while still schooling us on our catastrophic planet habits last week during New York City Climate Week and Forbes Sustainability Leaders Summit. Not even a q&a with the Wall Street Journal's podcast 'The Journal' could get her to slow down. She reminded us, repeatedly, that humans—despite wearing pants and having fancy gadgets—are just animals crashing the planet's Airbnb with zero respect, shouting 'We’re not intelligent because we’re destroying our only home!' Her final mic drop? Economic development can't hog the party if we want to avoid self-extinction—dramatic, yet all too real.

Jane Goodall said it best: Humans are 'intellectual animals' who totally fail at not wrecking their own house. Genius, right? We’ve got tech but no survival cheat codes, and the planet’s just waiting for us to figure out the restart button.
If being 'intellectual animals' means trashing your home while live-tweeting it, congratulations humanity, you’re winning at extinction like pro chimpanzees.
Jane Goodall toured to warn us to save nature, but humans stayed busy burning fossil fuels like it's a credit card with no limit. Spoiler: The planet’s charging interest.
