It is unlikely that you will meet anyone who will live to see a mass extinction on earth. Inevitably yes, if we're talking millions of years then of course "nothing lasts forever." It is a bit bullheaded for someone to think that their generation is lucky enough to witness the end of all things. It's a hard question to answer realistically without sounding like a doomsdayer, but some biologists think we are already in one. Some even say that species are disappearing at a faster rate today than they were following the meteor impact 65 million years ago. Millions of species have been lost through deforestation,particularly of tropical rainforest, which support most of the world's species.Around half of the world's forest is already cleared. In the oceans,species such as the Atlantic cod are close to collapse, and were incredibly abundant only 200 years ago.Our population is exploding and now global warming has been added to the mix.Yes, the Earth is in danger of another mass extinction.
