    Really generous estimation of the hellscape we’re leaving for our descendants. This IS the glory days. It’s all downhill from here.

          Yet we are still here. No single civilization needs last forever, no single way of doing things ever will. But we will remain. Likely still technological, likely still modern.

            It took civilization thousands of years to recover from that collapse. This is not something to be simply dismissed.

            Also, in the case of Climate Change, it will take millions of years for Earth to recover once our civilization has collapsed, this is an even bigger hurdle.

              It took hundreds of years for a few civilizations to recover. Other regions were untouched. You are cherry picking.

        Then it’s pretty bold of you to be making generalizations and predictions in your wall of text OP.
