Our reading
An editorial interpretation.
Malcolm’s objection concerns the attitude behind what is being done. Nature is being approached without enough humility, and the scale of that confidence astonishes him. The warning asks whether having the ability to intervene has been mistaken for understanding everything that intervention might set in motion.
