Prophylactically, probably not. Humans tend to think "out of sight, out of mind" and only care about the "here and now". I once had a teacher who literally said "I don't give a shiz about the environment. Why would I care?! I'll be dead 50 years from now anyway." I was so tempted to ask "well, what about for your children or your children's children?" but again, she said she'd be dead so probably wouldn't care anyway.
