I expect civilisation as we know in to have, in 50 years
survived
15(65.2%)
collapsed due to climate OMFGWAGTDBBQ
1(4.3%)
collapsed due to energy shortage (overall or readily transportable)
1(4.3%)
collapsed due to the technological singularity
0(0.0%)
survived in some sense but not as we know it due to the singularity
2(8.7%)
collapsed due to some other reason (stated below or in comments)
4(17.4%)
Other reason for collapse?
Over the timescale of 50 years I expect climate change
To have made little impact due to there not being much of it

I believe that the generally excepted mathematical models of climate change
Are accurate
15(71.4%)
Are coincidentally right (models wrong, conclusions right)
3(14.3%)
Are accidentally wrong
3(14.3%)
Are deliberately wrong just like in that nice Mr Creighton's novel

Bad-ass geoengineering solutions for climate change
Will not be necessary
0(0.0%)
Will be tried and fail
8(34.8%)
Will not be tried for political reasons
9(39.1%)
Will not be tried due to needing energy we don't have

Will succeed
