Poll : What do you think is the greatest threat to humanity?

I’ve been reading an article on catastrophic threats facing humans this morning and thought I’d make a poll with some of the threats they mentioned. Which threat worries you the most?

What do you think is the greatest threat to humanity?
  • Nuclear Weapons and other weapons of mass destruction
  • Global Warming
  • Declining water supplies
  • Chemical pollution
  • Rising food insecurity
  • Pandemics
  • Over population
  • Collapse of ecosystems and loss of biodiversity

Humans themselves. I don’t see us surviving very long. We do a really good job of screwing things up.

I think a lot of these are equally bad at destroying the planet but I would guess that pandemics would kill us off first.

I mean for example, antibiotic resistance comes to mind. If there is a bacterial disease pandemic that rapidly mutates

but then again there may be some survivors so maybe global warming because that could just wipe us all out

They are all of concern, but I put global warming. Apparently in the 1980s they determined that if the global temperature Rose by another six degrees, our atmosphere would start to peel away. Now we are only two degrees away from doing permanent, possibly irreversible damage to our atmosphere. Things that make you go huh

I believe I asked my mom to give, and she said, No.

and we’re in Iowa!

I’ll tell a little story of what I’m concerned about.

I had a dream probably a month ago. In the dream Xi introduced me to himself. I know there will be a one world gov. I’m hoping and thinking it will be America and allies. This dream says something different. I’m a little scared because of all the propaganda(?) against China. A kinda fear of the unknown. I’m hoping China is a good steward of this earth. The Chinese culture and people are absolutely amazing. Also Xi was a really nice guy.

Maybe that’s not what the dream meaning is. I’m not an interpreter of dreams.

not to turn this political, and get hidden, but one reason why Trump refused to go to the G7 Summit.

I forgot about the politics rule. My bad.

My thoughts exactly only instead of saying all humans i would say only the biggest ass holes are the greatest threat
