As a recent convert to Ecomodernism, I interpret the above animation to indicate that as we of the Anthropocene become evermore prosperous, amateur astronomy becomes so popular that the Dark-Sky Movement's demand that all have a right to view the night sky's heavenly wonders leads to a compromise: All human-scape areas where people want a well-lit life are domed. Roads between cities become tunnels, ask Elon Musk how. Areas outside of city domes will be restored to Nature. Envision honeycombed domes hundreds of meters thick containing the robotic control systems. The domes, small ones covering towns, vast ones covering cities, are each covered with soil and native vegetation where the deer and the buffalo again roam. A few hold-out Eloi may refuse to use fusion or clean nuclear power (or even clean coal) and cluster around hydroelectric sources because they don't believe in human exceptionalism nor value dark skies.

They who live with the animals will become as animals. The decoupling of techno-modern human life from nature will be completed in the near future. I used to be a growth apostate because at times I'd rather know than believe, but believing feels so much BETTER!, so I'm determined to remain a true believer—at least until after breakfast.

After breakfast I'm not so sure about anything. I don't believe in anything. I don't even believe in belief. Apart from a few tautological truisms, I don't know anything to be true, much less certain. My interpretation of the animation? When peak everything came, it was denied, but soon the view over the edge was apparent even to average intelligentsia types as they looked over the Seneca cliff from their position on high. Some humans (e.g. systems ecologists) who could say 'I told you so', offered a plan and a few elite public intellectuals were so well informed that they knew they knew nothing, and so they listened to those who endeavor to listen to Nature. A teachable moment had come. Most intelligentsia types, like rats of NIMH, decided to abandon ship and upload the new OS. The teaming billions soon clamored to board the new ship of fools, whose folly was yet less than their predecessors as all now knew themselves to be fools. Most came to admit they didn't know enough to have an opinion, and voted Ecolate Party. A naturocracy self-organized to lead humans to embrace the prosperous way down, to deglow the world, and transition to a low emergy sustainability as the millennia pass, so humans could come to love and understand the planet, and live with it properly for the first time (with perhaps a few exceptions) since the beginnings of agriculture.

A three minute video that is worth a look. The first 02:17 minutes are mostly agreed upon facts. The rest is perhaps 'feel-good delusional' which is obligatory when referencing the future of humanity if sponsors/supporters are expected—it's a anthropocentric thing. To most primates, social approbation matters.
