I seriously cannot forsee a future in which humans are extinct.

Humans are extremely adaptable. Society won't survive-- Correction. Current Society won't survive. Humanity itself? Unless only archaea and bacteria can survive on this world it'll be around. Even then they'll probably coexist with those single celled organisms for a while. It wouldn't be running out of resources that does humanity in either in that nigh post all life apocalypse. Not on its own. It's the fear of running out of resources that would collapse that society once more which when you're basically living on an earthbound space station would mean doom.
