And what makes "these times" any different from any other time?
The ability to destroy our planet through accidental or purposeful acts.
The present state of our global environmental problems , which stem from an apparent attitude that , "money is king" , and then the willingness to do anything do get it. Related to this is the attitude that science can fix anything we "humans mess up", which my not be true.
The gradual at first, but now seen to be accelerating loss of awareness,or "consciousness" of a spiritual reality that exists
concerning our relationship with mother nature, the womb and source of all life.
The level of control achieved over humanity by the "puppet master".
Along with this is the sheer numbers of humanity , which as far as we can tell is the greatest it has ever been.
I could go on , but you get the picture.
