You seem to have basic presumptions that suffering is avoidably bad and that suffering is an important concern to be addressed.
These people are quitters? Maybe they are, but in other ways then you call them out. Suffering is a condition only to those able to perceive it. Suffering is a creation of perception. Imbuing some moral "high road," upon which, we should seek to travel seems a narrow concern of individuals within such a species. We are lucky enough to be born able to suffer, we suffer - maybe lucky enough to find joy and elation, then we die. We are one of the suffering. Do I sympathize with suffering and seek to help alleviate it? Sure, but I'm not haunted by it. It's the other side of me. Something which propels me.
What's interesting is that via this 1992 website, some tiny sect of people are focusing on something else they consider avoidably bad and an important concern to be addressed which, within a larger context, is even more devoid of contextual reasoning.
Their healthy biosphere will, at some point be lifeless and destroyed when the sun dies out or some other event with slightly greater than 0% chance occurs. For what purpose did they "save" it now?
We each have our own forever. It starts when we are born and it ends when we die. The same is true of the biosphere, the solar system, the galaxy, etc. In between, we experience each moment from a unique perspective... and then that moment is gone as is the person we were at that moment. Our suffering is gone. Our joy is gone. A new moment is hear and it is more lovely are intolerable than the last.
Work towards what you like, but building high roads on a spheroid planet or in emulated circuits still has you going round in circles. Without suffering we'd mostly just sit in a circle, staring around, not enjoying relief or, worse, finding suffering in moments devoid of ecstasy. The golden time is now as it's the only time we certainly have.
