It's mentions a potential collapse as early as 2025. More precisely 2025-2095. That is this century and it's accurate to say 2025 is imminent.

Yes, but I - and probably you - will die sometime between 2025 and 2095. I wouldn't say that therefore our deaths are imminent.

  Right but that's just you making a bad comparison on the timescale of this thing having collapsed previously it's pretty imminent.

  Likely, but if the collapse happens in say 2030, the rest of my life and that of almost everyone else, however short or long that may be, is not going to be pleasent. Regardless, I would like to see humanity safely thrive. I don't want earth to become an example of the great filter theory.

  That’s a ridiculous comparison. Single human lifetimes are only measured in decades. If the entirety of humans were very likely to be wiped out from 2025 to 2095, you would definitely call that imminent, and is a much more apt comparison.

    That’s a ridiculous comparison. The vast majority of humans don't live anywhere near the Atlantic so there's no way the entirety of humans would be wiped out. My comparison was much more apt.

      The number of people the collapse would affect is a whole lot closer to “the total human population” than “1 person”.

  Obviously, the OP does not have children or does not care about the future children are the future animals or the future anything

  2095 isn’t, but 2025 sure is if I’m thinking about my death! Also, for an event like this, even 70 years out seems “imminent” To me.

  My kids should still be alive in 2100, if only just

    If my son lives as long as his (still alive) great grandpa has so far, he’ll still be alive in 2110.

> It's mentions a potential collapse as early as 2025 "DOOM ITS THE END OF THE WORLD!" is a tale as old as time... revelations has been screaming the end is near for thousands of years now. It's "accurate to say" that prophets and prophecies are notoriously wrong which is why signs that the ice caps will be gone by 2000 have been removed from state parks. hint: they aren't gone.

  Which previous doom sayer had mountains of evidence by thousands of scientists?

    ... all of them? Ice caps are still there and the world still isn't that much hotter than it normally is. and "thousands of scientists" lol sure... thousands of priests say that miracles happen. Meanwhile... those same "scientists" are silent as the solutions to "climate catastrophe" are mountains of "green" tech that's unrecyclable after destroying the earth to create batteries, wind mills and solar panels that under perform and end up in land fills. https://www.newsweek.com/nobel-prize-winner-who-doesnt-believe-climate-crisis-has-speech-canceled-1815020 https://www.newsweek.com/nobel-prize-winner-who-doesnt-belie... But... if that's not enough? What about scientists - including Nobel prize winning scientists - that say there are no crisis? My opinion? "Climate Change" is a religion just like other religions - some truth mixed with a lot of "follow what I say or WE'RE ALL DEAD!". Literally 100 years of failed predictions making global warming... I mean cooling... I mean acid rain... I mean CLIMATE CATSTROPHE! wrong at every step. Can't have real conversations about real solutions to real problems when you're dealing with religious faithful which is why green solutions are going to fuck our planet up more than oil could ever dream of.

      ... all of them? Name one and show their evidence Meanwhile... those same "scientists" are silent What are you talking about as the solutions to "climate catastrophe" Now you are mixing 'solutions' with just admitting there is a problem. My opinion? "Climate Change" is a religion just like other religions Climate change has huge amounts of evidence behind it. A religion by definition doesn't. If a religion had evidence it would be science. Can't have real conversations Is this your version of a real conversation?
