I honestly don't think that the human race can sustain a hundred years. There is way too much going on in this crazy world especially when it comes to environmental issues. People just don't care about what they are doing this earth and without all of us making an effort then maybe we can start to see small changes. I also believe that political leaders don't see the extent of this problem as they should. Their agenda focuses on funds going to military costs as i've read somewhere, now what does this say about leaders? They have their priorities backwards, and instead of war they should be fighting to save this planet because in the end there won't be a world to fight for or worth fighting for. I know that this doesn't answer your question, i suppose i understand where you are coming from.

How do we perceive time and space ? What is the premise / precursor of this question or is there one premise or many premises ? :

Does one look at the nature of man or its histo-biography of resilience in the environment ? Each postulated problem, an “echo-habitat”, of politics and social; of man and metal technology (i.e. man made) and earthed evolved and tested technology (i.e. evolution, adaptation of natural beings); of adaptation, evolution and revolution; of rate of change ( or lack of change ).

Do we assume fluctuating resources within measurable units of time, give rise to effects that are creative, destructive and benign ?

What if constant time and resources creating the above effects were compressed into a singular event ?

Not the best model to demonstrate using applied pure maths but rather a conceptual model that each 1 represents positive, negative and neutral effects

1 cancelling 1=0.
Assuming 1 represents a positive effect and a negative effect, each in equal opposition and effect.

1 cancelling 1 adding 1 = 0.
Assuming 1 represents: the first, an appositive effect, the second, a positive effect and the third condition, a benign effect.
( The benign effect that could either have no effect or amplify the first two former’s effect simply because it contains the pre-requisite, ie. of occupying time and space that is either denied to the first two effects or available to both but possibly favourable to one. )

That is to say, the sum collective of 1’s cancel each other given equal proportion of substance in the other. Within known and measurable time and space, man’s survival would tether on the existence of all if all events occurred simultaneously. Ad infinitum, our existence with the third 1 is perhaps not in question but perhaps the form in which we are re-adapted to.

If the benign effect were then defined or called as Time and Space, man’s saving grace, enhancements to man’s survival and demise would be played out on this field.

Imagine existing as a complex and not simple amoeba (crassly put: back to basics). Perhaps the sum of the parts known as “Human” is no longer viable in its quest for self relisation and perpetual within the known environment. The “Human” psyche must overcome all ( including the non-absolute values ) regardless the form.

Afterthought:

Or should the question on survival rephrased how we believe, “faith”, that we can survive ? An almost absolute quality to give perceived security to insecurities ( not religious faith ) in operating within the world, remains just as that. For if we pass today, tomorrow will not concern us.
( Lost gains and woes, what could happen and what should happen, etc )

The question on "How" may also not be such an apt question given market forces of beliefs ( proven and unproven ). Perhaps what is A next question. Perhaps, Do we (the collective) want to survive and to what ends ?

(Kindly note: This is not a comprehensive answer: lacking continuity and cohesiveness. )

The answer is very simple. BALANCE....

We are far from spreading out to outer space. It took many years for us to evolve in this environment to begin with.

We as humans need to abide by the laws in which govern the ecosystem that gave us life and gives us life today.

This planet has been here for millions of years. And we are asking the question - how we can last another 100 years?

Think of how an ecosystem works. BALANCE........

A consistent amount of animals occupy an area. If for instance, a population of rabbits spikes, they are the type of animal that would eat all the vegetation around them and destroy their own ecosystem.

Nature's Balance - a population of predators like wolfs, cats, and other animals would straighten this system out really quick.

Population Control, Alternate sources of power, and respect for the BALANCE of Earths ecosystem is the answer.

If we don't exercise balance soon, then we will destroy the only system that can save us.

this could be an common one. If the international gets too warm, we've shown that we are in a position to stay to tell the story it with the aid of fact the "Cradles of Civilization" have been in warm, dry areas. If the international gets chilly, then we've already shown that we are in a position to stand up to ice an prolonged time, and that's with out any "intense" technologies. If the international gets overpopulated, it is going to, out of necessity, stability itself out. i do no longer think of we ought to tension approximately surviving the subsequent a hundred years. the authentic question is a thank you to we save the subsequent a hundred years from growing to be to be the subsequent dark Age.

human race certainly sustain for another 100 years, but the important thing is: how? i think there is no good lookout for us and for avoiding all the problems one of the important things are first we understand that religions are the same, and the second try to destroy ethnocentric thoughts that seems now are important for many peoples ...

FIRST: The Middle-East Muslim psychos kill each other off.
SECOND: The rest of the world realizes their governments are lying to them
THIRD: When it becomes obvious that America is living at the highest level these people will allwant to join the USA.

Don't believe this? Look up in history at what Ho Chi Minh wanted the US to do with Viet Nam. (clue: 51st state)

It probably wont, but no matter the length of time that is left, the rapture will happen when we least expect it. When the rapture comes, whose side are you going to be on? Jesus or the devils? God gave us the freedom to choose our own destiny: heaven or hell. By confessing your sin, repenting, and asking Jesus Christ to come into your life and save you, knowing that He died on the cross and rose on the third day all to give you salvation, it was a free gift, if you ask Jesus to come into your life and be Lord of your life, know him as savior, confess with your own mouth and believe with your whole heart, then Jesus will save you from hell and so no need to fear surviving because God has a plan for your life, he formed you before the womb, you are his creation and He wants to be with you for all of eternity in heaven, complete joy, happiness, peace, and everythign good, all tears, sorrow, sin, and death will all be gone in heaven. It will be a glorious day when Jesus comes back to get Gods children!!!

I'll go with eliminating the burning of inefficient fossil fuels. That would stop struggle over these resources, alleviate or end human suffering due to extreme drought, floods, desertification, and rising ocean levels, and pretty much make people stop hating each other. It's hard to be hateful and blame people for your suffering if you aren't suffering, now isn't it?

It is being watched and guided from outside Chinvat, and in airships by folks from other gallaxies.
It is being inspired daily by the Creator, and individually so.
Not everyone will survive.
Future babies making up future generations are being planned and guided by Loo'is, masters of generation, under the guidance of the /Creator.
So you see, man, is not just left on his own ...he is helped and guided much. In this the 7th era he is to bedome peaceful, quit warring, become vegetarian.

It won't when the Holy War starts, figure 7 years. I'd say it is closer to 4 years left.
