Essentially, yes if it's feasible.

Europe (with the notable exception of Germany) didn't prepare for WW2. If Britain had, it might not even have happened.

Governments (especially where there are fair elections every few years) aren't very good at distinguishing the critically important from the simply urgent. Given our direction of travel, it seems unlikely that the planet will be habitable in 1,000 years.

Arguably a pandemic was a certainty and I'm pretty sure that was an assumption underpinning the contingency plans that did actually exist but were allowed to slide into a position of non-readiness.

Contingencies such as the sun exploding would be so disastrous that there is no prospect of recovery. No point in trying to make preparations. Yet what humans are doing to the planet is just as serious

The work, or at least the aims and purpose, of Extinction Rebellion is somewhat more important that Getting Brexit Done. But is it really on the to-do list?
