It's unrealistic to think that the human race will be around for even another 300 years.

The human race will come near extinction, but I'm confident that it will live on for millenias to come.

We're all screwed because humans as a whole are just too ignorant to save themselves - from themselves.

Not to me. Well, maybe, if it was just the remainder of my life. But I have a son who has an entire lifetime in front of him. My conscience will not allow me to shrug my shoulders and ignore the signs of an ailing planet knowing that my son could suffer a number of hardships including but not limited to - world war due to famine, nuclear fallout, lack of resources, political and literal tyranny and quite possibly the complete absence of basic human freedoms.

Maybe they won't die, but what good is life if it has no quality about it?

I don't think for a moment that the human race is going to escape catastrophic destruction. We're going to embrace killing eachother as we have done so many times before.

Maybe the next wave of humans will figure it out. Maybe not.
