Draggendrop Veteran Posted June 18, 2015 Veteran Share Posted June 18, 2015 Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, and hopefully it was arrived at by thorough analysis. In the end, as long as there are off world explorers who wish to colonize and embrace new adventures...............the human race will take care of itself..............elsewhere..............Cheers....

DConnell Member Posted June 18, 2015 Member Share Posted June 18, 2015 I voted no, the planet and everyone on it is beyond saving. What we need is an extinction level event, and a 'reboot' of the human species. One with no concept of religion and power, so the human race can FINALLY live in peace once and for all. Wipe everything out and recreate humanity according to your preferences? There are more than a few movies where the bad guy has that idea . . . +E.Worm Jimmy 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arachno 1D Posted June 22, 2015 Share Posted June 22, 2015 A professor famous for predicting the imminent demise of the human race at regular intervals since the 1970s has predicted the imminent demise of the human race. Paul Ehrlich, who is the Bing Professor of Population Studies at the Stanford Woods Institute for the Environment, says it's definitely on this time. In a tinned statement issued on Friday, the arm-waving prof lays it on the line: There is no longer any doubt: We are entering a mass extinction that threatens humanity's existence ... the window of opportunity is rapidly closing ... "[The study] shows without any significant doubt that we are now entering the sixth great mass extinction event," Ehrlich said ... "If it is allowed to continue, life would take many millions of years to recover, and our species itself would likely disappear early on," said lead author Gerardo Ceballos. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/06/22/this_time_we_really_are_all_doomed_famous_doomsayer_prof_says/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeylove Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Some more points to consider: A view that is much longer than many imagine: https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Anthropocene Involving many factors, such as: http://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2015/01/three-minutes-until-doom/384758/ with related statements given by hundreds of scientists: http://www.ucsusa.org/about/1992-world-scientists.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
