I didn't want to bring up depopulation. It's too real and too depressing. 300 to 1 my bet is on a pneumovirus. Something like the never before or after seen 1918 Spanish Flu.

In the meantime while the above is taking affect over time - we need a full court press on solar farms, wind farms, ocean wave farms, energy storage reservoirs, natural hydro-electric plants, much more buried grid wiring, better vehicle battery technologies, and if ever possible ... the Holy Grail of earth-bound nuclear fusion.
