Don't be obtuse.
- 4gotunameagain 3y agoWell he has a point. Humans survive from what, -40C to 40C ? Given Earth's record temperatures of -89.2C to 56.7C, sure, we can survive in a large chunk, but the mean temperature of cosmic gas is 2.2 million deg C
- coryrc 3y agoWhen talking about climate, it is not relevant that we are unable to live in the sun.
- 4gotunameagain 3y agoWhen talking about planetary temperatures, it is relevant that we cannot live in Venus, at 475C, or Mars, -60C. It is not inconceivable that we mess things up so much that peak temperatures move by double digits, in which case it will be evident if our temperature range is tiny or not
- coryrc 3y agoNo one is predicting that much temperature rise.
- 4gotunameagain 3y agoI said it is not inconceivable, not that it is predicted.
