No clear answers because the reasons are so numerous.

No clear answers because we aren't willing to ask the correct question: How do we replace the global economy that incentivizes avarice, private hoarding, gluttony, destructive and reckless growth/metastasis, and sociopathy with one that incentivizes pro-social vocations, sustainability, homeostasis with our world, inclusion, and equity?

Our species is working very hard to destroy itself, and the global capitalist economy is obsessed with incentivizing it for selfish short term private profit at all other expense. Any question that doesn't address that reality is just masturbation as the world ends.

There is no eventuality where the situation improves AND billions of humans continue to subsist in service to a few thousand sociopath families. There are only about 3k billionaires on Earth, there are less than 30k 100-million-plus-inaires on Earth, and we're destroying our only communal habitat for billions of people, solely to make line go up for them.
