Ritchie may be smart and genuine but maybe also naive. No one is predicting immediate death for all, they're predicting the cold harsh facts about what the world is going to look like in a decade or so. NO MATTER WHAT WE DO. And their track record has been underestimating events and timelines.

She is extremely overly optimistic if she really thinks some kind of new technology is going to be discovered and used to reverse this course in the next decade or so.

Sorry if I sound like a Doomsday person, but frankly there is very little chance humans can fix this problem at this point.
