too late in what sense? what is the inevitable event that will happen? humans are great at adapting, i'm sure we'd find a way

I agree. I used to be like the person above you. Now, I'm more like you are. I've spent less time being pessimistic and more time learning about ancient civilizations, and I gotta say... I feel confident that we'll press through the pressures and be better off for it.

People will still suffer and die, tho. I wish that part wasn't true... but as a species? We'll be just fine
