What comes next? Giant meteorite, dinosaur style (uh oh)? Or Kyle Sandilands getting another TV show (ewww)?
It's times like these when we need a cool quote from Jack Burton (Big Trouble in Little China):

I read about the various extinction events. The Younger Dryas ...30 feet sea level rise overnight apparently and another 400 sea level rise in the next five years. Some would have it that it was a cosmic impact that wiped out a reasonably well advanced civilization...and you think what would be left of us if the sea level played is those cards.
Imagine just the havoc of 30 foot over night tomorrow and another 400 feet by 2025.
Would what's left survive? If not what would be left after 10000 years.
Edit by way of addition.
I could imagine losing the ability to mine or generate power, mining coal may be beyond us..all that is left is recycled ...mmm
