Brazil Wood
Heading Back to the Stone Age
It's hard to escape the conclusion that the human race is headed back to the Stone Age, sometime in the near future. This is predicted fairly soon - in geological terms, at any rate - maybe in around 500 or 1,000 years time.
What reasons are there for this? Look at the rate we have discovered new fuel and metal sources and progressively burnt them out. Within two hundred years or so we have nearly mined the planet out. The rate we are burning up the planet's resources is simply unbelievable.
It won't be long before all liquid and gas fossil fuels are burnt out. Following that, all the coal deposits will be used up. The last to go will be nuclear fuels, but that won't take long when all else is used up. By that time metals will be scarce, and a chunk of iron or aluminium will be worth more than gold is now.
Probably, by this time, the only power sources will be solar, wind or tidal generators, and maybe a small amount of geothermal power in one or two areas. Also, with no metal for repair and maintenance - and certainly not to build new with - these existing power sources will have a short life expectancy. Not really a problem, though, as there will be little left to power anyway by then. The seas will probably be a fished-out toxic waste dump by then, so there's not much hope there either.
The prospects for human life after this point look extremely grim. The best guess is that with all the earth's easily-found resources used up, and with no fuels or metals to be found any more, life will revert back to an animal-like existence of a pre-Stone Age type. That's because previously there was an abundance of flints, wood and game to hunt. None of those exist any more.
The horror of a return to this Neanderthal lifestyle can only be imagined - a spade or knife will be worth 10 pigs and 20 cows; roots and weeds grubbed up with an old stick will be the average diet. There will be no money, only barter with pigs, cows and slaves. And as we descend back to the depths of a Neanderthal life again, out of which we can never escape, all the old and vile ways of life will return, to fit the new caveman lifestyle. Men will once again become animals.
Food shortages will be so severe until the population shrinks back down to the tiny fraction of its present level that the planet can support without any technology, that cannibalism will become rife. Without doubt, population levels will decline to around 5 percent of the level now. Since by the time this all comes about, the world population will be even larger than the huge numbers now, it means that something like 99% of the population will die out.
Naturally, regions with the most advanced use of technology now will suffer the most at this time. The likelihood is that impoverished areas in isolated countries will more or less stay as they are - for ever. High-tech countries will see a return to pre-Stone Age life but without any of the benefits of the land at that time - we have removed all the usable materials. The implication is that life in the western world will return to the same sort of level seen in somewhere like Papua New Guinea now - but without the culture. This isn't really controversial since no one can suggest any realistic alternative.
And don't forget there is no way out - ever.
No energy, no transport, no power, no metals, no plastics, no industry -and that of course means no medicine. No surgery, no medicine.
A Neanderthal lifestyle of an animal quality is the only option then, as timber, game and flints no longer exist. Although as the human population of the Western world gradually dies out, the future could be brighter for areas like Brazil perhaps. With the removal of the poisonous virus of industrial humanity chainsawing the trees and bulldozing the land, the native peoples will be able to recover.
There's only one possible escape from this dilemma: perhaps by this point in time we might have found a way to make space exploration a viability, so that we can mine the asteroids and planets, to provide resources for vital industries.
And the only vital industry by that time will be space travel research, because the planet will on a short trip to extinction in the near future. The only way out is off - and the only way off is by finding a way to other planetary systems, where we might be able to locate another similar planet.
Maybe if we are supremely lucky. And it doesn't take a genius to work out that will mainly be for those in power, plus the odd doctor or two.

Frequently Asked Questions...
Does exists a law in progress to deforest the 50% of the Amazon's forest going on in Brazil's government?
I was told that a law was almost signed out by the Brazil's government in order to deforest the 50% of the Amazon's forest. They are going to do so to sell the wood and use the land for their cattle. I want to know if this is true or if it is an exaggeration.
Answer:
I heard something similar a few years ago.
It is amazing how the financially wealthy oppressor also state, 'civilizing the aborigines'.
For the record. Aborigines are culturally civilized-we aren't.
