If you were a time traveler, wouldn't you want to see what's happening on Earth, in the next 100 years? Our civilization has faced enormous threats, bushfires, earthquakes, floods, and hurricanes. And we continue to face lethal pandemics. These dangers are so severe that several scientists are concerned that human civilization might collapse. It's a horrifying thought. But what if it is true, is human civilization on the brink of disaster? How would it all unfold? And, how long before it all could come to an end? Are we facing mass extinction? What does climate change have to do with biodiversity loss? Will our air quality decrease even faster in the coming years?
