Is this the New Winston Churchill?

There are several reason for that, agreed, but this is not the line I want to argue about.

What I do care about is the planet, which in my terms is neither humanity or the rock floating in space, but the whole flora and fauna living on it.
What gives us the right to destroy the habitat of all those beings?
You mentioned the progress in genetics - this could be indeed a way out, once you manage synchronize humans even socialism could work.
In the end however, we will be nothing more than one gigantic ant hive - is that what you want? Is that worth to live for?
Given the choice I'd prefer to die any day to make this future not come true.
Btw; have you ever seen " soylent green"?

Now this is becoming highly philosophical, you have your opinion fr that, I have mine.
Nature really does not matter about what is done to her. She has survived global ice ages, meteorid impacts and ruptures of tectonic plates with species dying off in spades. So I am really not worried about the planet. Especially given that global armageddon and nuclear winters and summers would probably be more harmful to the planet then another 1000 years of going on like we currently do, so that is a bit of a self defeating argument.

I can symphazise with the rest of your fears, but as I said before, I'd rather take my chances instead of jumping from the bridge. You won't solve anything by throwing up your arms while running around yelling "the future is bleak, we all will suffer, seek salvation!"
