Also, research shows that the most popular pictures on internet are the pictures of cats.

Therefore, as a first step towards existential risk awareness, we need an official Existential Risk Cat mascot.

(I am not an artist, but I imagine a black cat with stars or galaxies in its fur, playing with a ball of string... where the ball is the Earth. If you are an artist, this is probably your best way to contribute to the future of humanity, so please give it a try...)

We could also go with a Moe Anthropomorphism.

Since the idea is existential risk, why not just use Tacgnol? It works especially well, since tacgnol also represents scope insensitivity. (Gnoool si Tacgnol.)
