Reserve your property now!

This is estimated to happen some 7B years from now, but life doesn't have that long to figure out how to get off this rock. The sun's luminosity increase will lower CO2 levels such that all plants will be extinct less than 1B years from now; animals can kiss their asses goodbye. The oceans are also predicted to boil off around the 1B mark. Any life at that point would be very rudimentary.
There are enough cars on the road to ward off the danger of co2 depletion. Not to mention the 7B humans and all the animals that breathe out co2 every second of every day.

Remember, I'm a writer and everything you say could wind up in a novel. Do you really want to be responsible?
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.

I may defend your right to free speech, but i won't help you pass out flyers.

Those who can make you believe absurdities, can make you commit atrocities.
