If you could boil it down for the busier among us: on a scale of "screwed" to "really screwed", how screwed does it say we are? ;)

- Havoc 11y agoNot based on this dataset, but I gather most models already require an assumption of powerful carbon capture tech on a big scale to result in an outcome other than disaster. i.e. reduction alone is no longer sufficient in itself to prevent serious consequences.
- briandear 11y agoReally? You actually believe the hysteria?
- fixermark 11y agoDefine 'hysteria.' I believe humanity will survive, but at a significant cost to lifestyle (at least from the point of view of this American). I'll miss the places that are beaches right now being beaches, and I'm not looking forward to the economic disruption as food sources change. We're an advanced enough society that in a nightmare scenario, we could pretty much weather several generations in a cave under a tightly-controlled resource regiment. But not seven billion of us, and I don't look forward to the culling that would happen as a result of massive climate upheaval.
