There's plenty of space in the universe. What makes you think future generations will even want to stay on this planet?

Planet Earth is our home and will be. I would like to see we spend our resources to control pollution, contain global warming and save species from being endangered first before looking to outer space for help.

And yeah future generations will be looking at us how we act because they definitely would prefer living here imo.

People aren't going to stop breeding. Not going into space confines us to a very depressing set of possible futures.
