That we aren't working on solving our many crises has nothing to do with whether or not we're in space. You're tying together two issues that have absolutely nothing to do with each other.

Climate change and space travel are literally opposing goals. If we send people to space, we add more greenhouse gasses to the atmosphere. If we stop polluting the atmosphere with dead dino farts we cant get people into space.
