What do you think will happen first?

[R.A.T. Army]

Will man kind kill itself off first or will we wipe out every species on earth? I don't think many can argue that we won't reach both of these milestones, they almost seem to be goals with the speed we are heading for them.

Over six billion people and probably several million different species of plants, animals, etc. Yeah, I don't think either is actually possible. Not unless we get hit by another big ass asteroid. But that wouldn't be our fault.

It is believed that there was a time, around one hundred thousand years ago, when there were as few as a couple of thousand humans on earth. That was the closest we have come to being extinct but there is still time to fix that.

If you put 2 rabbits into an enclosure & give them all the water & food they could ever need & then close the door, what will happen?

They will live, breed & die. The problem is that slowly, over time, there will be more rabbits & only so much food - eventually something has to break. That cage is very much like Earth, only so many resources & an ever increasing population.

We are, at the same time, smarter & just as stupid as the rabbits because we can see it coming & yet will not be able to stop it either.

I believe the world will end up in WWIII, which will be sometime in 20-30 yrs. The most advanced weapons of mass distruction to be released upon the world causing "the end"
