The universe isn't really that old so it probably just hasn't had time to start getting crowded yet. We should really get our shit together in the next million years or so and get on top of that.

    Funny of you to think humans will even be around in 100 years, let alone one million.

    Honestly given that we are a very intelligent generalist, I think it would be very hard to completely eradicate humans.

    But I would agree that we could have a crazy bad collapse and have to start way over due to a much smaller habitable part of the planet and maybe that habitable area shifts around making us nomadic or something. That would probably make it a lot harder to redevelop tech. Source: https://www.open.edu/openlearn/nature-environment/environment-understanding-atmospheric-and-ocean-flows/content-section-4

    Figure 18 shows that such a warm, stable period has been very unusual in the last 800 000 years, yet it is only during the Holocene that agriculture and the civilisations that rely on it have developed
