I don’t mean better for you or me but better in general. Do you believe our species will ever reach some form of enlightenment or will we destroy ourselves?

    Not for humans. Fascism can be recovered from, but climate change can’t at this point until humans are gone.

      Sure there will be lots of wars and famine but predicting human extinction as a result of climate change is a bit of a stretch. Even in a bad scenario where 99% of humanity dies off things could still turn back around, regrow and we try again for an advanced civilization in a couple millennia.

        The question was whether or not things will get better, not extinction. We’re unlikely to go extinct, but things will absolutely get worse for us.
