Modern solutions to a modern problem, changing our lifestyles would only slow down the problem because of the damage already in play, that and CO2 gases are naturally released. Given that animals release more CO2 then we do combined, it may be a naturally occurring phenomena from a newly evolved species! You can't just put the blame on man without the proper knowhow.
@Yukimora- Not even slightly, your just not aware how far and how much we will be able to do with future inventions and discoveries. Gene manipulation would get rid of our little fat problem, with the introduction of nanotechnology we will have the ability to create tiny bots to replace our immune system, wiping out all diseases.
Yeah, nanobots? Ehh....I don't think Star Trek stuff like won't happen in our lifetime. According to Russian Reaserch during the Cold War, by combing smallpox with the flu, you create a lethal virus strain. Only those living in the most remote isolated areas wouldn't be able to survive.Lol, nanotech is becoming one of the biggest things being researched atm, and it wouldn't be impossible to see it in our lifetimes. It moved from the pages of science fiction a long time ago.
We mass-breed literally billions of cattle, sheep, chickens etc, whilst destroying vast amounts of plant life and forestation =oSomething that's needed. More people, more food. As to the deforestation, while it may be a tad excessive, is needed too. When you don't have all the facts it's easy to point the finger, global warming has been manipulated and modified in the same key as those marijuana ads, it's still an uncertainty.
What if that same little robot started moving, and actually disrupted our system.
Ever heard of nanobots? One of the official dooms day theories would be one of them going rouge and turning into a super-virus type thing...
Global warming won't make humans extinct. Do you people even know what it is?
It's impossible to have any clue as to when mankind will end, it could end tomorrow, or quite frankly, never. Not matter what situation you can think of, there is a way around it.
The human race is not going to survive, and even if it does, it'll probably die due to lack of things like water and other such stuff
Nightwolf... LOL
If you get Sea Water place in a metal dish put fire below it to heat the water to boiling point and have a canapie above to catch the condinsation the water will run down and be salt free (The salt will remain in the dish).

Fridge Bomb:- http://www.theworstsite.com/?id=-2030544323 (one of these could end Mankind)
I've always pondered how mankind will eventually end, and I've been wondering how other people think about the same subject. And please, don't say mankind won't end, because all things must end weather you believe in science or not.
I would like for you to please state the most possible event or situation that would end our exsistence.
Quite frankly, I believe it will be super-virus that is highly contagious and kills fast. It is most likely because diseases evolve and mutate much faster than out science can keep up with. You?
Womankind needs mankind though, that's your one weakness.
Mankind might end, and Womankind would be free!
(go feminists!)
I noe you said i can't say that the human race will never end, but in reality, it can't. No virus can kill all humans because there are always a select few who are immune to the virus. Maybe if we get hit by an asteriod right now, but other than that, we well survive. Even if the earth is destoryed in the next 100 years, we probably would be living somewhere else. We would have colonies all ova the galaxy. Also remember, we can always crossbreed with other life forms or aliens.
When i say immunity to viruses, I mean natural immunities. There are some people in the world who will never get AIDS no matter how many people they do and have never gotten shots or what eva. Everyone is immune to something or don'tas affected. That is how animals survive and that is how bacteria survive anti-biotics. You may say that bacteria produce faster but there was always one that had the immunity. I think colonies are possible, but won't happen for a couple of hundered years. I am sure some humans will have children with some aliens and stuff. Humans did make a mule, why can't we make a Chewbaccuman?
I noe another way to stop an asteroid:
You send a missile, which does not explode, and make it penerate the asteroid and go all the way through. As it goes all the way through, high density strings are attached. Once the missile comes out the other end, the missile uses its own propulsion to alter the path of the asteroid. It may move the asteroid a couple of meters but it can change the collision course.
And please, don't say mankind won't end, because all things must end weather you believe in science or not.How could we know? Mankind is very resistant, I believe that even the end of our planet wouldn't mean our death.
sammy, look at all the crap earth's been going through. how do you expect mankind to resist this, and even if we were to resist the natural shit, we won't be able to resist the sun losing energy and dieing out, burning yp the planets, causing ourselves to go extinct.IF we stay here you are right. But in one century no one can tell the technology that would be ours. Maybe we will be able to move to another planet where life is possible. Science-fiction you say? Yes, For now it is but tell anyone who lived during the middle ages that in the 20th century there will be flying machines...
unless you havent seen day after tommorow, which was scientifically proven to be true,
In 2012 "Bad Times" will start, yet they will end, and "Good Times" will begin again.
The 2012 theory, in which the world is supposed to end, is purely miss understood I think.
The Incans, in which we base this theory off of, say that Quetzalcoatl (sorry if I butchered that) will come in 2012, but that's just the start of it:
The Incans where supposed to be able to predict earth quakes to the day they happened I read. They were supposed to be very good at predicting earth quakes, and supposedly:QuoteIn 2012 "Bad Times" will start, yet they will end, and "Good Times" will begin again.
I don't know if that's what they said, but that's what I read. So, according to that, the world will be in bad times, then it will become good again! :D
But, I don't know what else...I never studied them too much.
So, in my opinion, when the media says the world is going to end, is false, it's just going to be bad times. But I think that the world will not end, I think it'll just be like another ice age. If something like that does happen.

'Twas the Mayans, not the Incas.
Also, read about the Hopis. ~
I highly doubt the world will end due to an ice age or global warming, which is just a phase that everyone is making a huge deal over. 20 years ago it was global cooling people were worried about, this isn't a big problem. and the day after tomorrow is about as factual as a wikipedia entry edited by a five year old.
While we may end up killing ourselves off, this I am skeptical about as well, seeing as we have been fighting ourselves since day 1 and we haven't managed to destroy ourselves yet.
There are some who argue we will run out of resources for the ever growing population, this may be true. But as we time goes on and the human race progresses we will most likely find ways to survive.
Aliens? maybe, but until they actually make themselves blatantly know to us, more advanced and obviously hostile, I keep this possibility astronomically small.
Apparently the sun will eventually die out billions of years from now, I see this as our most likely end but I will not be around to witness it, so its all good.

Al Gore, says it completely relevates to his theories, which are true.
We'll probably evolve to a much less intelligent life form.Paradoxical, wouldn't that be devolving? And why would we need to do that?
find a way to reproduce without them.Yeah, like there are any girl scientists ::)
I world full of lesbians...mmmmmmmm...are these girl hot by any chance? If so can I some directions. ;D
Marie Curie, Rosalind Franklin, Nina Byers, Margaret Fountaine, Linda B. Buck; I know you were being sarcastic, but I just had to.
You're strange....
I Doubt the human race will ever become apes, and I doubt we ever were. Darwin, sorry buddy, but there are waaaay too many flaws in Evolution.
100 years ago the tallest person would probably be only 6'0". We adapted to our environment,
You're strange....
ummm, no he isn't? perfectly sensible
1. If we were, apes, then how did we become humans? How did we evolve?
Actually that's where most people have their mistakes. We weren't apes >.>
We were "like" apes, but just a different form.
2. What created apes?
Carbon and other random stuff.
3. How did the earth get here? Big bang? Doubt it, because what caused that?
If big bang was a sex orgy then I doubt it too. Apparently thats not the case. the big bang was just a theory in which spinning gas was compressed by gravity and eventually exploded into solid forms.
4. What evolved to apes
An earlier form of apes?
5. Species can't evolve into other species
No shit
1. If we were, apes, then how did we become humans? How did we evolve?

5. Species can't evolve into other species
That you believe animals can evolve?? You said "into another species" you didn't say "They don't evolve". So now you do believe in evolution of some form??
I just hope the end of the owrld doesn't happen in my life time or my childrns, childrens... 3 generation from now, I don't give a rats arse...LOL
To Mexnato
Read Angels and Demons and The Da Vinci Code both by Dan Brown, they show that sometimes science and religion can mix.
To Everybody
Who cares when mankind ends, if it ends far in the future then we don't have anything to worry about apart from the eventual end of our life (our life being the one we ourselves are living now not ones that belong to other people).
And you do know, there are tons of catholic scientists?
I do know what Natural science is, and I have a big liking to it.
I also believe species can adapt, or else I think we wouldn't be here. And adapting isn't evolving, by the means of Darwin, anyway. Totally.
Science has come a long way, and a lot of Darwin's theories were based off his findings when he was around. And there are tons of flaws in Darwin's theories. Science has come a long way, and a lot of Darwin's theories were based off his findings when he was around. And there are tons of flaws in Darwin's theories.
In his time, science as he knew it, his theories, said that human evolved from ape, because of the such similar body and skeleton build. Evolution, the theory, and the word are two very different things, it seems.
The theory (And I call it that, because we have no proof that it is real, until then, theory) is based of the ape transformation into modern man.
The word is usually used to signify things that have changed over the years in things such as languages.
The body, I forgot what they called it (was it bones? Or is that something else I'm thinking of), the one they found in Africa, it is bigger than the modern human body, by a lot, yet it is still too small to be an apes body. So if evolution is real, it would have been billions of years in the making.
And every question like this can be answered(?) with "Why"? Which no one can explain in reality. And it pisses people off to try and debunk or prove the "why" wrong.
I think the same thing ever time I think of god, why don't we ever think of beings who could have been before him? And when I questioned my "church teacher" with that, (I hated those god damned things) it, he basically looked like he thought I was a psycho, and that really pissed me off.
I'm not saying if science doesn't know the answer then it's wrong, I'm bringing up another branch to what could have created it.
And first of all, we have our separate opinions it seems, and why can't respect them and get back on subject.
Space, time, reality and logic, we make our own thoughts to become reality. So, why not just get along and consider our differences as opinions.
why couldn't have god created evolution? Why is it so hard to think that? Because science and religion don't mix? I think not.
Mex, I assume you're a fairly religious person. And DS is pretty much a complete atheist. I respect your beliefs and opinions but you can't base science off one person's theory. Things sometimes just can't be explained, and the easiest way to find an answer is to read the bible.
There's a reason we have religion, to help us understand complicated things in life. Without religion it would be like playing hockey without a rulebook, government without the charter of rights or RMRK without the mods. It helps us determine right from wrong, and that's the part of religion I respect.
Instead of trying draw more cards from the deck, accept the cards you are dealt.
And DS, you pretty much summed everything up. I just figured he would understand the simple answers I gave lol.

America will spell the end of mankind, definitely.

We take, but we don't really value what is reality. Computers, video games, books, movies, tv shows, virtual reality...
I think stupid kids will see dumb movies like 28 days later and want to invent the rage virus, same with resident evil.
Media is corrupting this world...if there were a virus, I'm sure it wouldn't be a zombie transforming virus, but rather, something that can corrupt things, and break them down, multiply on our cells, gain our knowledge...Maybe a little far fetched...
What if aliens do exist, and they are just waiting for Chuck Norris to die...

No, it makes no sense.
You're overestimating the influence the media has on people's thoughts and actions. People don't go around imitating Dr. House or Tony Soprano.
Movies don't turn people into murderers. It'd be great if you supplied evidence to the contrary, however.
Also, I was just pulling random characters out of my ass- I don't watch much TV, and I'm not a House fan nor have I seen the Sopranos. But it'd be obvious if people were tying to mimic TV characters, and they don't. They mimic their peers and mentors.
