I think this is a really excellent article, even if it is very hypothetical. The idea of civilisations having a timespan of 500-600 years is an interesting and worrying concept. But the best thing is the quote from Achim Steiner at the end about natural capital, which makes me feel slightly rosy about the future....

Anyway, DiScuss. Is this the end of the world?
