The human race will not last long enough for that to happen. We'll all die of cancer from the microplastics in our water, or starvation and war driven by global warming. We've fucked it all to hell and we're too greedy and blissfully ignorant to care.

We’ve been beaten down to only thousands of humans before. We’ll figure it out. But most of us wont be there its true.

Close! We will die from polluting our water tables with metals from EVs and improper disposal of solar panels.

EVs and solar panels? I'm guessing that you're a climate change denier. Deny it all you want but you're kids and grandkids are fucked thanks to people who think like you.

Wrong. I work in water treatment and metals contaminants from batteries and solar panels will be far more damaging than carbon emissions ever were. We have a lot less water too. Future generations will look back and say “what were they thinking?”
