What makes you think we'll die out? Sure billions will die, but we're like cockroaches, there'll be some left
Just because we always have doesn't mean we always will.
We're managing our planet like a chronic drunk driver who's somehow never had a collision. "It's fine, I do this all the time!"
All it takes is one 'not fine' and the story's over.
I just hope whatever emerges from the ashes evolves to be a species that's less of a dickhead than humans. ...assuming anything emerges from the ashes; that isn't a guarantee either.
That's because whatever we encountered, there were still places where humans could survive.
If Earth turns into an other Mars, that wouldn't be the case.
Maybe life would survive though. Hopefully.
