Aren't those two statements contradictory? If we're likely to destroy (the remaining) ecosystems, how are we supposed to 'adapt and expand'?

- nomel 4y agoThere's a very significant feedback system at play here that will eventually result in a mass die off of humans, and a near halt of the human produced greenhouse gas emissions. Around that time, the regions near the poles will be as green as ever. I don't think it's possible for the humans to completely destroy the ecosystem. It would require a runaway event that would have to make nearly 100% of the world inhospitable, probably requiring a bit of war mixed in. If you're talking "we" as you and me, then I agree. If it's "we" as humans, it's a hard disagree. I don't think the science is there.
