“I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones.” Albert Einstein's quote seems to become reality faster every day.

[@PaulaBean]

+Spiritelligence Yes, perhaps after the technological demise of humankind there will only be some small groups of people left, thrown back into into the stone age. Then evolution can start anew. Even if all people, animals and plants die, life will probably evolve again from micro-cellular life from the ocean.

[@althedude7730]

You DO know the quote was supposed to show that the creation of nuclear weapons is going to destroy mankind to the point where the next ww will be fought using ancient tools. And is not compatible with the dying of 60% of animals due to human activity speeding up the next extinction.

[@commentingaccount1383]

Technological progress is the great filter of all intelligent species in the universe. We all evolve from a brutal biological background, so we have these instincts that cause us to do things like destroy the ecosystems that support us. We use up all the fossil fuels that have been generated over millions of years. Any other intelligent species will do the same thing. That's why we don't see any super-advanced space faring species. Their evolutionary psychology basically guarantees that they'll kill themselves with the super-tech they invent. Both sad and beautiful. Hopefully something will make it

I actually find it amazing, that Man Kind is so intelligent, that we are able to change the world around us to fit our needs, but also intelligent enough to realize what we are doing wrong, and through analysis of other species and past species, we can figure out how to save the world around us.

+Lord Zizumias That would need the participation of a shit load of people.One way to make them do so is with education. Problem with the system, or at least the system in my place, is that education seems a bit disconnected from reality. What is taught in school is supposed to children ideas on how to make the world better. Usually though, students are intimidated by the esotericism associated with certain disciplines. Teacher don't seems to do much about it, and most children end up unable to appreciate what is taught to them..

Doesn't really matter anymore. We have killed our environment, now it's killing us. The damage we have done over the last 200 years will take MILLIONS of years to reverse (if it ever does, just look at Venus to see how this planet may end up). All this talk about slowing the affects of 'us' is just that, talk. These are conversations we should have been having 100 years ago, and the main cause of the whole mess, over population...
