Or, more likely, dead and extinct in it for some other species to one day dig up and thank their lucky stars that it all went wrong for us.
We're all pretty happy that the dinos blinked out after their 190million or so year run of the place. As we sit here on our perch....with what, maybe 8k years under our belts as the undisputed king - it might be prudent to consider how quickly and thoroughly it can all come to an end if we, like they, remain prisoners of this meat grinder. It's not a friendly planet....we do damage to it, but it's hard to argue that it didn't have it comin. That's just life punching back.
