That doesn’t make any sense, though. You’re being too literal. The house is the habitability and sustainable nature of Earth’s ecosystems. It’s where we live now. The fire represents the climate crisis, which is past us now. The battle is lost. The Earth will be fine, but humanity has to figure out how to survive without the natural protections and abundance that have allowed us to grow unfettered. It’s too late to look for ways to recognize the warning signs of a fire, or to prevent a fire, or to look for ways to extinguish a fire.

Leaving the planet might work, if we had anywhere else to go, but we’re nowhere near the technological capability to terraform the Moon or Mars, and even further from leaving the solar system.

No, we’re stuck here, where there used to be the conditions that protected civilizations from storms, famines, droughts, and extreme cold. We’re not all going to survive it, but those who do will need to solve some of the problems we created.
