I hope you're right.
But our "legacy of improvement", is actually more like a 'legacy of destruction'. We pollute more every year, our seas are turning more and more acidic, we are using more fossil fuels without looking for alternatives, we are creating more nuclear waste that we cannot dispose of, and we are still fighting wars for resources.
Nevertheless, if the scientists can get sorted with Nuclear fusion, hydrogen fuel cells and other renewable power sources then I'm sure that we won't end up killing ourselves.
