Climate scientists now believe their predictions about the rate of the global temperature increase have been too conservative, and stronger and more decisive action is needed to reduce dangerous…
It's insane for me to think that in like... 30 years, that's it. We've been vibing on this rock for several millennia at this point, and now it's done. There won't be space travel, or flying cars, or utopian fully automated luxury gay space communism.
Some people needed more numbers, and (as far as we know) the only intelligent life in the universe vanishes.
it absolutely won't be the end of human civilization. I imagine something more like the devolution after the end of the roman empire, and then a few millennia of slow progress until a breakthrough.
Warming of, say, 4C is most definitely incompatible with modern human civilization. And we're on a trajectory to get there. Not to mention, even before reaching that level the consequences we'll be enduring will raise tensions between countries immensely, and may lead to global conflicts - and this time around, we have nukes.
At what point does it stop being doomer to say that the ruling class has run out the clock on human civilization
1987 Now we are fighting for a better position during the collapse. Like opossums fighting for the good piece of trash.

I hope the apocalypse happens late on a Sunday, so I don't go to work for no reason
There might be. The technologies needed to see us through this are pretty much the techs needed for FALGSC.
If we can keep it together through the next 200 years or so, things start looking up, even though we've likely fucked things for us completely.

Not only do we have nukes, but we have at least one country heinously evil enough to pre-emptively use them.
Really? Sounds bad.
