Warm water can’t solve as much oxygen, plus there are plenty of self-reinforcing effects that might have already started happening.
Life won’t die, we had plenty of mass extinction, but most of current species do like their oxygen. Also, their shells.

- BobbyJo 4y agoWhy assume there won't be? Seems like the risk there is greater.
- baq 4y agoWhat’s runaway is our rate of change in releasing co2, compounding annually at something like 1-2%
- graeme 4y agoThere's negative and positive feedback processes. On balance the positive feedback processes outweigh the negative ones. e.g. * Melting ice caps mean more heat absorption * melting permafrost releases methane * Warming oceans freeze frozen methane I'm forgetting a bunch, doing this from memory. What negative feedbacks do you believe outweigh these?
