This is a bigger problem than just IPv6 deployment. Many of the major
problems facing the world today were recognised decades ago (pollution,
over population, you know - the biggies). Humans responded to most of
these revelations by doing less than was required, later than it was
needed.
The original environment in which humans evolved favoured short term
planning over long term planning and little has changed in the human brain
since that time.
Since I realised this the current state of the world has made a lot more
sense to me.
