If you threw every person in the world in a giant pile they wouldn't even fill the Grand Canyon. Now sure the Grand Canyon is very large, but compared to the entire earth it is but a small crack.

You know it's kind of funny because I always used to wonder the same thing. However what I think the answer is, is that after a period of time these burial sites get forgotten and built over, and not like a massive amount of time, maybe a few hundred years. If you think about it, it makes sense. After about 3-4 generations no living person will have ever met you in person. I think about that when I think about how as a young child I remember going with my father to my great grandfather's grave and putting a flag on it on Memorial day because he was a World War I vet. He died when I was 2 years old and I don't even remember him. My dad has now been gone for 9 years and my grandfather for about 20, so who is visiting my great grandfathers grave now? Or all the other graves of people born in the 17-1800's long gone now that nobody alive today ever met.

These are technologically underdeveloped areas. The abundance just refers to the first world countries. Yes in a perfect world we would share it all instead of sitting here getting fat, but never goes that way. Ironically however, we will probably eventually do ourselves in with gluttony, complacency from automation, etc, and these others who will be stronger from having to survive harsher conditions will eventually flourish.

Lol, climate change. Your whole argument completely goes to shit once you mention the biggest farce ever invented.

@reddysteddy2195 That's my prediction for our future as well, a period of regression before making big steps forward. Some people think going back to like a medieval type society but I don't quite think that far. Maybe more like an American frontier like society after either some type of disaster, large scale war, pandemic (a real one), or widespread famine. Something that wipes out like half the population and things just get simpler for awhile before they advance again. I think it is bound to happen at some point. And maybe it needs happen lest we end up like the mice in the universe 25 experiment. It's already going that way. Mice went one of three ways, either overly violent and killed the other mice, indifferent and only concerned with preening themselves (the beautiful ones), or anxious loners who only fed off scraps because they were afraid to interact with the other mice. Sounds a lot like modern humans to me.

@UnfilteredMedic Sure, I'll prove it. Go off yourself then I will use your corpse to make about 8 billion analogues and I'll start dumping them in there. I'd let you know how it goes but you will be dead. I'll pass it on to your next of kin. Realistically though, it's not like I am saying I have the formula for cold fusion here, Einstein. Not to difficult to calculate the volume of an average human body, multiplied by the world population, subtracted from the volume of the canyon.

I'll give you something to much on

When talking on very long scales, we must do so to survive. If humanity can actually last another billion years the earth will be uninhabitable by that point. Got a long way to go though considering modern humans have only been around a few hundred thousand years and civilization about 75-80 thousand years. A drop in the bucket compared to a billion and we have already almost obliterated ourselves several times already 😳
