I think I can pretty safely guarantee that in a thousand years there will be no human civilization as we know it. There will be something different, I have no idea what.
And there is a huge difference between "reduced to poverty and stagnation" and "there are no humans any more".
Agreed; the question is: will it be better or worse. I can't imagine a future where resources are scarce as being anything but bad.
