Answer:
Although the story is not at all serious because of how it is written, the background, the topic of the story is really serious.

The topic is serious because nowadays we keep discussing the consequences of global warming and consumerism. However, the story is also told in an ironically way, it's about how thousands of years later everyone finds the Earth boring and they only visit the Gift Shop. I believe the author choose to do both because it's not hard to recognize that we, as a society, have similar behaviors as the ones descripted in the story.
