Will the human race be around in 3001? I think yes but only if peter potrelli can save the world on heroes

Our species of Human will die...but we will evolve into something more spectacular or enhance technology that will save our ass.......that is if an outside force doesn't kill us by then

not on this planet. I doubt we could use recources of Earth for another 1000 years. We might advance in space and be able to go to other planets and live on them for a while, using their resources and then moving to a new planet but that's my opinion

Am I the only optimist here?
As long as no-one starts chucking nukes around in large numbers before some sort of infrastructure in space is developed, humanity should be fine.
An asteroid colony (screw planets) is both self-sustaining and cheap, so you can produce them in such numbers that it'll be very difficult to destroy them all.
Hell, if you really wanted to, humans could colonise the galaxy with nothing more than artificial womb technology, decently smart AI and some sort of cheap dependable thruster.
Once a race has colonised more than a few solar systems, it's going to take supernova or Neutron Star collision level catastrophies to take them out.
A few hundred years more, and humanity will be set for millions of years to come. (unless there are aliens involved. Then humanity is srewed

)

A century is 100 years.(2107) 3001 is the beginning of the next millennium.

NO! We won't be around...we will be something else.
See for yourself!
This is what we will end up being, all because of stupid human wars!
Must see!

If I, and others, succeed in kicking all babies through windows, then no, we won't be around in 3001.

Unless the "War on Terror" goes nuclear (not hugely likely), there isn't really any appreciable chance that it'll impact humanity's chances of survival one little bit.

The world will not end, it is always evolving and cleansing itself. Global Warming is going to destroy mankind.

Nnnnnnnnnnnnoo...
If global warming is to wipe out mankind single handedly, then water would have to cover essentially all available land. Unfortunately for you doomsayers, this would require remarkably more water than is available.
Anyway, if somehow it did manage to exterminate humanity entirely, it would, in the process of doing so, also have exterminated everything of reasonable complexity that didn't know how to swim. That's got to be quite a few hundred million years of evolution, down the drain.
Screw with western civilization? Yes. Destroy humanity? No.
