How to Survive the End of the World

This series has consistent and effective analysis of different methods of potential major issues. Each episode covers different potential events and approaches for handling each of the challenges set forth. I fond each episode very descriptive and insightful. Zombie earth covered the concept of a an infectious disease really turning humanity into a race of vicious, seething monsters. Hell on Earth covers a directly hit by a primordial black hole. Showing that the strike is so immense that it generates a colossal shockwave, disturbing the magma beneath every existing volcanic system. Frozen Earth examines how the Earth would end if a catastrophic dark matter event in the solar system caused the planet to slowly move away from the Sun. Each episode is astute in its evaluation of how major problems could be addressed by effective responses from humanity.

Some people seem to think it is imperative to come up with every possible negative scenario in life and then throw it at a screen as if it is imminent. This show is another of those. I just read the description of one of the episodes and all I can ask is "WHY?". The science is pop-science and fails to recognize that 1) the likelihood and existence of the initial event is being re-investigated as we watch by its original proponent, and 2)If the initial event were to occur as currently understood then the secondary event would be entirely moot. The earth would have ceased to exist long before the secondary event ( to which most of the program is devoted)could happen.

One thing is certain at this point in our development; We will all die from something. Don't waste your time listening to navel gazing, hand wringing Middle Eastern twaddle and you just may start to enjoy life a bit more. It's an important concept as all our times are limited!
