Terraforming is very interesting, and it may be our first steps towards reaching Michio Kaku's type 1 civilization. Yet I cant help but to think that our current earthly problems are nothing compared to what is going on with the sun. We're going through an extreme solar minimum right now.

All sorts of movies come to mind which depict humanity all binding together to fix a problem with the sun. It saddens me to think that it will take an existential risk for us to come together as one.
