Will Humans as a species survive/outlive earth?

[Eternity]

Technically: No
Figuratively: Yes

Reason I say that is because let's face it earth will be around for billions of years, maybe not as you would like or think "earth" should be as but it will be around. Know think about it if from billions of years we as a species don't kill ourselves then we will have either evolved to a state where we are all machines or we have evolved to a state where there are MANY MANY MANY subspecies or we have evolved as a species to a point where we are not technically humans anymore however we will technically be them as an ancestor.

HOWEVER keep in mind this is a scenario where no big meteor has hit earth or aliens haven't seen us as a threat or we haven't offended them by mistake or anything


Let me know what you think

Did you forgot that Sun as we know it will eventually die out, so without our sun the earth wont survive as we know it now.

Ye because the sun will die out tomorrow..
It will die out in 2 billion years. Humans will have killed eachother way before.

Yeah, haha.. But you'll never know when sun actually dies.

Yes but that isn't for a very very long time, meaning that if we're still around by then we won't be on earth anymore. At least not the smarter ones.

I won't live that long so idgaf tbh
But I doubt humans will outlive earth

They wont... Since this earth will probably die along with the sun.

[Arrow]

Well there is no way we will outlive the earth that's for sure.
And we will just kill each other long before the earth gets destroyed

[Trol553]

I dont think so , we will kill each other before sun is gonna explode and also we havent found any other planet to live.

[Kingpin]

I am quite certain that technology will soon (Thousands, maybe millions years from now) be so advanced that we will live on different planets. Humans will continue to live even when the Earth 'dies'. I don't think that we will all kill eachother in the end, that's very unlikely.

[Ferris Bueller]

Everyone says we'll just kill each other beforehand but the more I think about that the more I realize how dumb that is. I'm sure world leaders are smart enough not to start a nuclear holocaust and even if they do, there will definitely be survivors. I feel like yes we will outlast the earth because by the time the earth is ready to die, we'll be long gone to another planet.

They say rats and cockroaches will be tha last thing on Earth...

Doubt it, even with technology advancing Earth is dying and we'll only be consuming more resources further down the track. The sun is also heating up and will be able to keep life on Earth sustainable for less than a billion years.

Apparentlyby 2050 there will be MORE PLASTIC then fish in our oceans.
More people will have to starve in the future so people can eat. Currently 1 billion people are starving, also we will need to make a major breakthrough to not have more starving people because the consumption rate keeps going up but our production rate does not.

I wouldn't doubt it, the trash piles in the ocean are huge.
We don't need to make a major breakthrough, we simply should help third world countries with the food we have, considering we have more than enough.
