    I mean, my assumption is “people will keep doing what they’re doing now”, and, barring a global eco-religious revival, I don’t really think that’s an unreasonable assumption.

      Yes, and here you are also assuming “people” is a homogenous group, that the western culture you are from (aren’t you ?) is hegemonic.

      But looking at how geopolitics are evolving lately, the world is increasingly multipolar, with multiple models of civilization competing. I don’t know, maybe India will wake the fuck up before us and thrive, while Europe rots and USA goes down the toilet drain?
