i think the pessimistic view, is at least in part, self contradicting;
The diabolical economics is our best population control. Economically successful countries/families do not have enough children to maintain the population numbers, Australia has a declining population without net immigration despite bonus $$ for having a baby. Logan, please get a good high tax paying job so i and a coupla others can have a good pension for our many twilight years .
The current fracturing of unity eg Brexit & trade tiffs is a 'correction' and progress towards globalisation/unification/less borders will return to the long term trend. ever increasing information sharing guarantees it. Reducing the likely hood of KABOOM!
every day i read of advancements in our knowledge and understanding of our cosmos at every level. each advance has good and evil but arguably we have thus far managed for more good than evil.
yes, we sure do need to consume less wastefully but that attitude is trending in the right direction. combined with eg plastic reduced to its constituent elements by micro/nano fauna, and we will get back on track.
