Human race becomes extinct today. Farewell people

''The Earth has experienced five mass extinctions before the one we are living through now, each so complete a slate-wiping of the evolutionary record it functioned as a resetting of the planetary clock, and many climate scientists will tell you they are the best analog for the ecological future we are diving headlong into. Unless you are a teenager, you probably read in your high-school textbooks that these extinctions were the result of asteroids. In fact, all but the one that killed the dinosaurs were caused by climate change produced by greenhouse gas. The most notorious was 252 million years ago; it began when carbon warmed the planet by five degrees, accelerated when that warming triggered the release of methane in the Arctic, and ended with 97 percent of all life on Earth dead. We are currently adding carbon to the atmosphere at a considerably faster rate; by most estimates, at least ten times faster. The rate is accelerating. ''

yes, there might be some bs spin around the place --------------- but, there's a lot of basic stuff we know - and we know that modern man has already begun mass extinction of species - of which - Australia is world leader

we also know that the climate is warming - there's no argument there. Why exactly - is in some doubt perhaps.

but, that it's happening and that weather events are changing because of it - is probably now way beyond doubt

personally I think we waste time arguing about who is at fault - and we should just get on with engineering to survive - and I think we should do that in an awful hurry

"we should just get on with engineering to survive - and I think we should do that in an awful hurry"

Where should we start.

Can we all agree that any 'engineering to survive' should rely on the baseload power that we have in situ and gives us 24/7 engineering ability?
