The Drake equation; one of the factors is that industrialized planets soon go extinct, as we may from climate change and destroying natural resources.. So after almost 5-Billion years, the earth was only able to send and receive such radio signals the last 50 years or so., Condensed to one 24-hour day, this is literally a fraction of the last second before midnight. So if civilizations tend to destroy themselves, pretty slim odds pointing to a planet during that slim window they would have radio telescopes. I am hoping climate change has not reached a tipping point, as some scientists believe (its already too late), where ocean warming causes the release of mass amounts of methane. Methane that will kick global warming into high gear,and the oceans rise 20 feet in a few years. 95-percent of all life died during the permian extinction, and this s the lottery politics for profit is forcing us to play with the earth. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drake_equation
