I guess that the most of the Earth would be a toxic and a radioactive desert. Ocean waters would be much higher than they are today. People would live cramped up in cities. Food and water would be pretty expensive. It would not be much different to live on Mars.

Humans will extinct in a pleasant way. Genetic engineers of the near future can tell you this:
They can fix some genetic sequences of your planned child. Your child would never need glasses, would have healthy teeth, nice hair, strong hearth and blood vessels, higher resistance against UV-rays, X-rays, gamma-rays, higher resistance against mechanical damage and your child can live 1000 years… And it’s safe and cheap. What would you say?

These modifications will lead to some kind of superhuman race.

I already told you guys and girls several times:

THE ANTS WILL TAKE OVER :smile: :smile:
is this from city?

i figgure the world and humanity will just change so much that we'll consider it to be by todays standards no longer Earth and no longer humanity
 
The world will problably last a few more million years although it may loose it's habitability (if that's a word) within a billion year. Mankind probably has some 100,000 years to go, as the average turn over rate of mammal species is about half a million years.

But then again, Don't worry about the world coming to an end today. It is already tomorrow in Australia.
