Mass extinction date set by science.
Yep. It's official folks... We've got 83 years to go before we put ourselves out of our own misery! Yay! Go humans!
Just thinking about all those starving people and children not having to suffer anymore! It brings a tear to my eye...

Quote:Planet Earth appears to be on course for the start of a sixth mass extinction of life by about 2100 because of the amount of carbon being pumped into the atmosphere, according to a mathematical study of the five previous events in the last 540 million years.

Ta Vorls.

Always nice to know there's a backup plan...

I'd hate to think of our scientists as the religious doomsday prophesizers who are always wrong! How embarrass...

So, intelligent enough to realize we are killing ourselves and many other things with us. Not intelligent enough to stop the behaviors we know are causing it.

I'm not so sure there is any actual higher intelligence on earth at all.

I reckon around 2050, we'll have carbon dioxide reclamation plants siphoning carbon out of the atmosphere.

I'd noticed these little areas around Dresden that looked like tiny houses with gardens. Finally got to see the entrance to one such area, and it turns out they are just tiny gardens, kleinesgärten. There buildings are sheds, and some small greenhouses. All right inside the city. I guess they have the right idea!

There are no workable proposals to do this.
It's amazing 'science' always seems to 'find' whatever it is funded for, and never the oppsite. Drich.
