Is colonizing worlds the ONLY way forward?

No. Terraforming earth is another option where we technologically alter the weather and the earth itself to design the weather and air and water we want. However, this is theoretical at this point only because of the necessary power and intelligence required to be  applied in an engineering way to accomplish this. And even then what would we really have?

It is unknown at present whether we could do all this without extinct-ing mankind during the scientific experiment itself. We simply do not have enough knowledge about many many interacting ecological systems of air, land and water and upper atmosphere when doing something like this yet.

The biggest single problem we face is overpopulation of humans driving most other species on earth extinct including all plants and animals and fish.

We will have to deal somehow with overpopulation before attempting Terraforming of earth from an engineering perspective.

Also, you would have to have every country on earth be democratic and then vote to get consensus to terraform earth and how would you do that?

Or you could just have the leaders of each country democratic or not to vote on terraforming.

Or individual countries might terraform without the permission of other countries. This likely is the most likely outcome at least at first regarding Terraforming.

The country most likely to terraform air and water first would likely be: China because it would only take Xi telling everyone to do it there.
