Aphelion@lemm.ee 2 months agoWell la-dee-dah! Look at Mr. “I think humans will still exist in 1000 years” over here. Let’s be real, we’re on track to extinct ourselves in the next 200 years if we don’t make some very difficult and dramatic changes to our behavior.

200 years? lmao, look everyone, this guy thinks our planet will support human life for another 200 years. At best another 80.

I mean, not to be captain optimist here, but human extinction is a bit far. Humans are extremely adaptable, even if they have to carve out a niche in the worst case hellscape they will survive.
Might not exactly be comfortable.

The oil runs out in another 30 or 40; things are going to fall apart pretty quickly after that, when we won’t be able to get enough food in to maintain cities.
