If the world was affected by global warming to the point that human and 
current plant/animal life could no longer exist, would it be possible for 
another race to exist on this planet, maybe billions of years later? If we've 
adapted to our environment as we evolve, could another lifeform grow and 
survive on our planet long after we're gone?
