The plan has been voluntary terraforming catastrophe for briefly high stock prices for many years.
A little or a lot more every year. Though humanity is pretty resourceful and nature has tardigrades, “never say never” to some post-apocalyptic 10k populations of one or the other surviving somewhere.
Right, collapse of modern civilization doesn’t necessarily mean the extinction of humanity. We certainly won’t be able to support 8-10 billion people, and not at the level of technology and luxury we enjoy, but I could see countries or cities with several million soldiering on.
I just fear those surving peoples will be under authoritarian rule for generations
Depends on the authority I guess. Controlled by science or controlled by god?
One is bad, and depending on who you are, it could be either.
You forgot option 3 controlled by people that want to maintain their power
That’s probably the most likely.
Everyone in a position of power wants the planet to burn
If they wanted a different outcome they hold all the power and accountability.
It the year was the first time trump got elected. The permafrost was melting and we went in the wrong direction. Its not so much if now as when.
Yes.
There are many reasons to dread the future. An opportunity to watch the destruction of Florida is not one of them.
Wouldn’t it, essentially, become a giant sand bank of sorts?
Of course. This will hold back humans getting off the planet for thousands of years. We got kind of close this round, will probably need another 3000-5000 years before the rock is left behind.
If we dont kessler syndrome ourselves and get stuck here first
If petroleum ends up functionally depleted and it cannot be extracted from our cycle’s detritus, it’s more likely to be millions of years. Likely we will never leave this rock again.
Civilisation is overrated anyway.

350 came and went. Were doomed. The only question is how badly.
Hold on, this roller coaster is just climbing up to the peak.
