My thoughts exactly. There’s no doubt we will learn the hard way.

Re: What would happen?
I saw that series also and found it both fascinating and humbling.Man has often stated that we will destroy the earth but this series showed us that Mother Earth has been around for billions of years and would literally shake us off like we were parasites but we are more likely to make ourselves extinct merely from our own ignorance and greed.
It shows that humans are just another species that evolved, matured and expired just like many other species on the planet.
For the most part we are a parasitic species that takes from its host and doesn’t give back.
It was an interesting series. Unfortunately I can’t watch all this video due to data limitations but it would be something I’d be interested in.

I think nature is going to help us jump host, shrug us off by making the planet difficult to live on...earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, storms etc which along with our own manmade disasters might provide the tipping point that means we will have to leave the planet......well the rich ones anyway
