your article doesn't say anything about human extinction. it talks about a "tipping point" in climate change but has no evidence to suggest human extinction. provide a source or stop claiming it will make us extinct.
- Sporktacular 4y agoWhy are humans the only creatures that matter? Are we the only ones capable of suffering? If it wipes out a quarter of all species isn't that a catastrophe, even without considering our dependence on them? Myopia like yours is how humanity got here.
- collegeburner 4y agoi didnt say that. i was responding to a hyperbolic and utterly baseless claim that climate change wpuld cause humanity to be extinct. it's an absolutely cnn-tier nonsense statement.
- Sporktacular 4y agoIt's hyperbolic but there is value in its core - ecosystem collapse would bring us close. And the point below is not unreasonable - our collective response to 1.5 vs 4.5 degrees warming will not be linear. Mass migration, resulting fascism, resource wars and mismanagement, evaporation and starvation could finish those who remain. If we're forced to live a completely different lifestyle it may be tantamount to the extinction of modern humanity.
