The article I linked ("Overshoot: Why It's Already Too Late To Save Civilization") explains why we can't, there simply isn't enough resources on planet Earth now. Tomorrow won't be the same as today, look at the advances in AI, which will likely benefit many aspects of science. More will be done with less. so everything I do is ultimately oriented for my afterlife, and all deeds (and sins) of mine are recorded and will be carried with me to the day of Judgement In my opinion this is why you hold such a bleak outlook on everything. Try changing that and it might feel a bit better. Thus I am not depressed by the situation the world is in I'm sorry, but I'm not sure you're being honest with yourself. |

I don’t doubt this. But the technological advancements required to sustain the current population are either not even in the horizon, or are outright physically impossible. AGI leading hopefully rapidly to ASI can probably solve a lot of things with advanced materials science, but aside from that possibility the future does look pretty bleak. Please read the article yourself and you’ll understand, there’s just too many crises cornering humanity, each of them currently with seemingly no way to solve.
> I'm not sure you're being honest with yourself.
I’m sorry, no. The only reason I mentioned the relation with depression is because I know from experience (friends, sample size < 10) an awful lot ratio of Western people tend to get serious depression at least temporarily after seeing the current true situation of the world.
