Will Humanity Avoid Social and Economic Collapse?

[PaulTheMaul]

Dealing with issues like clean energy and feeding a growing world population are challenges but they will be overcome by science, as will dealing with climate change.

Yes, but we still need to obey laws of physics and if something needs certain amount of energy to be produced, or if some material needs particular substance which cannot be substituted then we are pretty much.. screwed.

I do not think there will be some major collapse but we will have to adapt to some worse life conditions.

There is a potential for mass extinction every day and I like it that we are at the mercy of our surroundings, it makes life more interesting.

MIT researchers point to economic collapse by 2030. Looks like you were 20 years off, Sunstone.
