If the science is done, where is the model? Do you have any idea what kind of computing power you have today? When I was in college, 1000 people would share a single computer for a school of 30,000 people to do engineering work on. You have that in your pocket now. Yet no models are available, they are supposedly "too complex", well they claimed to have accurate reliable models in the 1990s.

The companies should be held accountable!!!

It's going to be extremely difficult. Climate change was already noticed when we were just 1-2 billion. Now we're 8. Even if our carbon footprint would be 15% of what it was 100 years ago - without cars, electronics, travel - we'd still stay on trend. We need 8x as much mining, 8x as much furniture and heating. More, in fact, since we don't live in multi-generation cottages, and we renew and replace our homes every so often. We insulate better but also heat more. (25°C is the minimum expected in offices, malls, homes.) It all begins by shaming the Economic Growth. Which is difficult because public debt is designed with it.

​@@patpat5135 difficult ? yes. Impossible ? No. The future of energy production should prioritize renewables, particularly solar and wind, supplemented by storage batteries. Utilizing just 175 square miles of desert land could feasibly generate enough electricity to meet 100% of the USA's needs, representing a mere 0.1% of the country's desert area. However, this vision is often dismissed as "impossible" due to concerns about its perceived costliness rather than recognizing its potential as an economic opportunity. Given that the USA possesses a sovereign currency, concerns about debt are largely mitigated as long as inflation remains manageable. The prevailing notion that governments should manage finances akin to households is a fallacy that persists.

Unfortunately, it’s too late for renewable energy to save the planet.

It is not this planet's first mass extinction, or even its second but once we are gone nature will try again, so, there will always be a future -- just not one that Humanity will be a part of, or most of the biodiversity that currently exists.

By volume, the dry air in Earth's atmosphere is about 78.08 percent nitrogen, 20.95 percent oxygen, and 0.93 percent argon, adding up to 99.96 percent. A brew of trace gases accounts for the other approximately 0.04 percent, including the greenhouse gases carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and ozone. To think that a small increase (200 parts per million in the last hundred years) of carbon dioxide would affect the weather is absurd.

Small ppm of a gas can have significant effect on life. With the ppm of atmospheric carbon going high above anything seen in the last million years, nothing on earth is adapted to the atmosphere we are creating. Millions of scintist and researchers agree that high levels of atmospheric carbon are a problem. Despite your feelings on the issue, sorry I will believe them instead.

This huge dose of hope is sadly a huge dose of hopium.

Right now, the money is on the war machine. What we can do is walk lightly - reduce our energy footprint and show love & compassion to all living things. Cheesy?

While you're doing that, lookup the cost on extracting precious metals to make electric vehicles. One more thing, oil isn't just for burning in cars, look around your house and see how many items are made with the by-products of oil; what is your solution for that?

Each day starting May 10, 2010 takes us 1000 years to the past of the universe. Today April 25, 2024 the state of our universe is the same as it was 5 million and 99 thousand years ago. On october 13, 2026 the state of our universe will be at the point 6 million years in the past. On june 04, 2051 the state of our universe will be at the point 15 million years in the past.
