What will humans do when our natural resources run out?
Question:
Answer:
they said we would never fly through the air like a bird.
We couldn't go more than 40 miles per hour or we wouldn't be able to breath or go faster than the speed of sound.
Cars would never replace horses. We Will never go to the moon.
Americans are inventors, cars, planes, computers, sewing machines, cotton gin, atomic bomb and the nuclear energy.
Even glasses for reading. Never came from Iraq or Iran.
Not one invention except oil. and the shell oil company from American ask if they could drill there. They didn't even do that.
You give us a problem we know how to fix it. From garage door openers to electric can openers. if all the money we send to help people over seas was used here instead of countries who hate us. We could come up with power that is a renewal resource that doesn't need oil. Wind mills, water wheels, solar power and even electric power. They use sugar cane in Brazil.
We have tons of coal. Find other ways.
Die.
We'll be extinct like the dinosaurs.
Die out - become extinct
I give up. What will they do?
Mother nature will take charge. We will die off to a reasonable sized population.
We'll be dead from a nuclear war before it comes to that.
INDONESIANS AND AFRICANS: STOP BREEDING!
Finding another planet to live on and using earth as a dumping site !
Eat each other.
We'll do something stupid and probably try to make up for it for 3000 years.
i guess we'll all die... and animals will rule the world.
I really don't know. I guess we'll have to stick around and see...
b.... EAT AND KILL EACH OTHER
50 or 60 years is too soon, But I predict in 100 to 200 years, There will be no resources whatsoever, and we will become cannibals and drink ocean water. Then we will mutate into super beings with mind powers, esp etc. That's just an opinion
the human race won't last that long...
In 2012 the poles are going to shift and 75% of the earths population will die.
The remaining 25% can't use up the earth's natural resources and the earth will regain normalcy.
we'll turn back and say, wait a minute, James asked us this question 50 years ago, and we'll all scramble for our pc's and try to type you an answer then...till then, bye bye!
Probably starve to death
panic and talk about how we should have done more earlier,
bio diversty is becoming more popular but we are controlled by the all mighty fuel companies who quash threats to there dominence
Jesus said to always pray that ye may be counted worthy to escape all the things that are coming upon the world.According to His words,I see that it is going to get pretty bad.I hope that I am already with Him before it happens.
There is hope in taking over a new world. I think they call it Scientific expansion or something like that. Most definitely not 'Taking Over Someplace New Cause We Screwed Up the Last Place We Lived'
i should be dead in around 50-60 years or i will die very soon after that time so to be honest i dont give a rats mainly because im incredibly selfish. so there.
They never will.
They can get enough energy from a glass of water to supply the world for 100 years.
If the population of the world was 100 times what it is today, still everyone could eat and dress like kings.
No problems in that one particular area.
Die
wow very good now you see that the african bush people are already adapted and the so called civilized society is not so looks like the blacks will be in great comfort and the white technologist will be at a dead lost
I see an increasing demand in organically produced food. But if that and cloning of sheep do not help to sustain our human population, we will resort to drastic measures.
An example is Easter Island...at one point, the human population on that island was completely wiped out because the islanders abused their land. When the land became barren, they resorted to cannibalism, targetting mainly on children and women.
But I also presume that our scientific research would allow more space travel in 50 years time. Humans might have resettled on a new planet.

Realise we're fools.
Maybe we'll have other productive sources of fuel by then. Or maybe not. Either way, the world will be a barren place.
The earth isn't running out of natural resources anytime soon. But over time, it will require more technology to get oil and other fossil fuels from the earth.
But don't despair. As oil gets harder to get (which costs $$$), the price of other fuels (solar power, ethanol, hydrogen fuel cells) will drop. As one type of fuel gets too expensive, there will be another to take its place.
I hope we populate a heavenly body elsewhere by then. I don't see much long term hope for the presently growing populations of the world. If the haters are successful and the world biosphere manipulators haven't killed us all by then, I suspect the world will be set back 2000 years or so population-wise. The world will be hotter and drier. Food and potable water may be real threats to survival due to the lack of resources.
I think we should all thank the leaders of the world now, for the lack of action they are taking to ensure a bright future for the human race.
This is why there are people who are trying to kill of 80% of human-life on this planet. They believe the Earth has too many people and if we don't do something about it we'll all die as a race.
I think humans are part of nature though, and we'll figure something out.
It's always the few that ruin it for the many. I mean, I'm not dumping toxic waste into the waters or building cars that run on oil. I'd love to drive a car that runs on Alcohal or Corn Oil, but they just don't sell those... so as it is, I don't own a car at all.
We really need a way to colonize another planet like Mars or something. Take an empty rock and we can build our own nature on it and not worry about screwing up what god created, but instead just making a new habbitat for humanity.
