Remember the kids show Dinosaurs? In the last episode, the dinosaurs are facing extinction by ice age. The devastated father explains to the kids that they could have prevented it, but didn't out of greed and arrogance. They did not appreciate what they had and thought that surely some magical futuristic technology would be invented some time to take the responsibility off and solve the problem for them. But of course that didn't happen. Now they have to accept the consequences.

That was in 1994.
