Seems the "World's Greatest Scientists" forgot about the world's almost certain demise in about 5 billion years or so.

The sun will become a red giant and swell hundreds (or thousands ) of times bigger, swallowing Mercury, Venus and Earth.

Unless mankind develops the technology and energy resources to move planet Earth to a safe distance, the world will most assuredly end then.
5 billion years.
Practically tomorrow.

And women and minorities will be worst affected.
