    Problem is we’re on our way to reach a point where even if we stopped all our GHG emissions, just the melting of the ice caps and thawing of the permafrost will be enough to create a self sustaining global warming event.

      If you’re talking about the Clathrate Gun hypothesis, that’s no longer considered relevant for the near-future climate crisis.

        “It’s ok, the planet is cooler than it was when it would have been uninhabitable for humans.”

        Way to go 👍

        Literally our entire human civilization occurs during a stable climate. If the earth were hotter we’d probably never have reached 8 billion, or if we did it would have been through another way. This is going to be a rough ride, especially for the kids.

            Nah that’s not it for me, but just that it will be the next generation whose will have it worse.
