Poll: End of human civilization

[divya]

we talk about bullsyht about saving the planet. planet has been there for million of years and it will continue to be there with self adjustment. its the humans who are screwed up.

 

[Gold1010]

the earth has always had a balance , if so why were we created , or maybe we were expected tobe smart enough to not wipe out animal species.

 

[notsuperstitious]

What human civilization?

What human civilization?

Oh that rare specie that kills its own kind than any other specie and presents it as civilized world.

Nice analysis...however what makes a meteor strike any different from a nuclear war

A possible meteor strike will shadow the earth by dust particles for 4,5 decades. Without direct contact of sunlight most vegetation would die, followed by animals. Microbes will survive though.

it'll be hard for the virus to kill much of humanity: once everyone in a region dies, the virus is gone, and if things get too bad: shoot the sick.

It's hard to quarantine a place in todays world, but if it comes to that then a possible use of tactical nuclear weapon can't be ruled out to contain the virus.

Man I love zombie movies!

Yes…however there is a possibility that some could survive….life is continuous thing, if everything would have been destroyed by the meteor strike that happened 65 million year ago, we would have not been there now

But the civilization in current form will be destroyed, life will eventually find a way and will come out more strongly than it is today!

Like what happened to Dinos.

Resident Evil is a bad example of Zombie movies, I like the British ones better!

What is the virus travels through air. Pandemonium in the affected areas will cause the infected peope to introduce the virus to other weather systems and potentially the virus can be everywhere on the planet.

Never underestimate the stupidity of our species in our quest to be more clever.

A virus needs a living organism to survive. Bubonic plague came to Europe through residents rats of ships! Now in the age of airlines it'll spread more instantaneously.

virus transport through air is short ranged transport. it can't cross over huge areas without people physically moving. quarantine the area, let the virus burn itself out.

obviously, large scale virus transport in the atmosphere across global distances is not possible due to various reasons - UV light destroying viral DNA in upper atmosphere and fragility to heat being some.
