Say we identify an existential threat to all life on Earth, but the threat will not come to impact us for centuries. But we currently have no solution to avoid Doom. Would everyone both, cooperate, and also simply commit to the work of solving it? Even if it means the work will take generations to pay off? Or would people just say "who cares what happens hundreds of years from now? The people then can figure it out" and every generation would keep putting off the work until it is too late? Are we capable of solving an issue that won't impact anyone alive right now? ... Copied to Clipboard!

Maybe but there's going to be a group out there that won't care because it's going to be way after their lifetime or another group that doesn't believe that there's an actual threat. Lol

CFCs and the ozone layer says yes. That was an easy one, though. Banning CFCs did the trick. Look at climate change. 33% believe it's not a problem, and 33% believe it's not real. --- XBL Gamertag: Rob Thorsman Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/robertvsilvers ... Copied to Clipboard!

In an immediate threat there's a probability.
But on this plot definitely no. Zikten posted... This topic is basically the plot of 3 Body Problem.
