This may be true but I would bet that the planet life adapts to change as it has with every extinction event.

Having said that we are probably only 1-200 years from a self sustaining off-world colony. 1000 years from interstellar travel. These timescales are miniscule to the planet. Exciting stuff!

Ehhhh

Mars can’t grow food.

They figured that out.

We’re f’ed

Also, climate change will fuck up the coasts in at most 50 years

Just because we haven't solved a problem yet doesn't mean it can't be solved!

Earth never guaranteed safety. At one point we could get hit by a meteor or the volcanoes could create another extinction event. Or we could cause some serious climate change. But if the past billion years tells you anything is that life finds a way to survive against monumental odds. Humans will prosper!
