Not sure about this one. Lots of predictions about the end of times and I don't see much science that isn't blasted by a rational counter argument that climate change is bogus. Certainly overpopulation will be a problem and we need to learn how to live together harmoniously. Government, in the USA at least, does not seem to be solving any of the major issues of our times and I think we need a big cultural shift. And no, I don't think "great reset" technocratic cultural reset is what is needed either. Something deeper that can give humanity meaning again.
Look at oceanic anoxic zones, the sharp decline of biodiversity. Birth defects in animals. Prion diseases, aka chronic wasting diseases. Reef die offs. Also there is a ton of evidence this happens periodically in prehistoric, geological timescales where we've lost 80% of complex multicellular life.

The worrisome part anyone who is a steward towards earth and cares about our great grandchildren, or even just the quality of life of our children is that we are rapidly and artificially accelerating this process.

It's not really covered up.

Let's say humanity lives 1000 more years because our science is very stupid, how will people live? What health problems will they face? What health problems are on the rise now?

Heat disease.
Endocrine. > diabetes
Neurological disorders, like chronic wasting diseases in humans > mental illness.
Autoimmune diseases
Pathogens like covid becoming commonplace.

Most of this is due to heavy metals pollution and malnutrition, soil depletion, sterilization, lack of healthy microbes, and a lot of the science on that is centuries old, especially regarding nutrition. There's a good reason people had a 40 year lifespan in great Britain as factory workers. Before a program of recycling human waste was implemented and augmented with imports from colonial conquests.

My # 1 rule is to not take the governments or my word on this.

Look after your own health and sustainability before you hand over your income to some states power companies protectionism.

Kaveh did right by having a ranch with a generator.

Even having an Acre and some old dried out rotted wood planks in reserve is a step in the right direction. Don't rely on nursing homes to feed you or keep ya warm in the coming biblical days bruhs.
