Quite good..the planet will return to chaos in a very distant future.
Our planet is still quite young.

One point I would have made that Carlin did if you read between the lines is, I would have made it clear that the Human race is PART of nature just as much a raccoon or a whale. What Man does is all part of nature, no matter what he destroys or creates. We are part of the whole process. We as a human race have the upper hand to survive. We will someday leave this planet Earth when it can't support life anymore as we know it. However, other life will be created or the existing life will find a way to survive. There are a lot of scenarios. Point is, Man is part of nature just like a tree. We can do no wrong just like a moose or snail can't. The Planet Earth is receptive to change, it recreates itself. Not necessarily to benefit Man or to support human life, but it will survive one way or the other and other life will be created from the state the Earth is in at that time. We are a product of the Earth, the Earth created us. We will with our intelligence many thousands or millions of years from now have the tech to leave this planet with space ships and colonize another planet or live on space stations.. Lets face it, the sun will burn out someday it won't last forever, and life as we know it will cease to exist on planet Earth. If the sun wasn't precisely the distance away from the Earth that it is now, life would not exist as we know it.
We obviously couldn't survive the sun burning out now, but we should be gone by then on space stations or another planet by the time that happens.
