Any prediction more than 50 years in the future is pure guesswork. There are just too many interconnected feedback loops and branching possibilities. This applies to any side of any debate, be it climate, economy, social sciences and so on. This applies to doom-sayers and it_will_be_fine-ers. This applies to the original article as well. That being said humanity evolves having multiple camps, each with their own ideas, fighting, competing, allying with each other. Thesis, antithesis, synthesis, rinse and repeat. And we are the definition of adaptability. I would not be worried unless some camp gains absolute power monopoly over a very long period of time. Which is, funny enough, what every camp tries to do with the worse or best intentions.
