May never recover? 80 years ago, Germany was split in two and the depths of the holocaust were still sinking into the worldwide consciousness. Given enough time, it absolutely can recover. Probably not in my lifetime, but eventually it might. Or maybe it’ll end up like Yugoslavia, the Soviet Union, or the nation of Taiwan. Wait, that last one hasn’t happened yet… forget I said anything.

My man, the Earth has like 20-30 years of habitabiloty left max, and we are not really doing enough and we only started doing it all 30-40 years too late.

The US doesn’t have 80 years to recover thanks to the Climate Crisis.

Humanity has survived several mass extinction events. Short of something on the far end of cataclysmic (i.e. “no complex life survives”) humanity will endure. We’re highly adaptable and can eat anything.

That doesn’t mean that most of us will survive, or those that do are going to be having a good time.

Our ancestors survived the last extinction event, you may mean.

Only because they were tiny rodent creatures. We don’t have that luxury.
