On time scales of centuries or millennia there are only three outcomes for humanity:
- Extinction - We don't need to care about it, because there are no descendants.
- Advancement - We will be able to handle the problem better as our technology improves.
- Stagnation/regression - We don't need to care about it. Our descendants will have to worry about dysentery, crop failures and regional warfare. Some magic rocks that kill people will end up as curios in warded laden boxes after first adventurous monk opens sarcophagus and succumbs to curse.
