Will climate change significantly affect our species?
I'm wondering what other DUers think.
Regardless of other species (I don't want to neglect them or suggests our fates are not linked, but for the sake of the question), do you think that climate change will extinguish the human race or radically re-adjust is dispensations, eliminating modern life as we have come to know it, for instance?
I'm not asking if we can yet avoid its major effects, but will we?
Is the petroleum industry so powerful that it will take us (and sadly thousands of other species) over the cliff?
What do you think?

2. Yes it will significantly affect our species, large areas will be underwater due to rising seas
That much is clear.
According to Algore.

10. A sky figure has not one thing to do with this
nada, not a one.
If, and according to a few experts this is not possible anyway, we are to survive...sky dads Don't help. I am being as serious as well, a heart attack.
Screw the extinction of the human race! Don't these DUmmies know it's all about nadin?

Yup, I am pleased with myself I did not have children.
My hypothetical great grand kids might not ever be born.
Well, she could have had children, but coach refused to take that one for the team.
I think we're all pretty pleased that nadin is barren.

8. BY 2100 the species might be on a decline that will lead to extinction
yes, more and more scientists are saying that

14. Of course it will.
We're already seeing effects from the current planetary heat loading.
We - the aggregate global "we" - have no way of voluntarily slowing carbon emissions significantly and rapidly, where "significant and rapid" means something like an 80% reduction in CO2 emissions within 20 years. Effective international agreements cannot be achievedeven for slow and insignificant reductions.
1. If the world economy keeps humming, CO2 will keep rising. Eventually the world's heat loading will be enough to cause widespread crop failures with all that implies. We may be within 20 years of that point.
2. The only thing we know of that would reduce human CO2 emissions significantly and rapidly is a global economic collapse. The probability, timeline and severity of such a crash is unpredictable, but the state of the world's economy and finances at the moment makes me very pessimistic.
And finally, the democrat dream, and the whole point of the global warming scam:
Perhaps the best we can hope for is a partial collapse of the world economy.

Are "sky figure" and "sky dad" nadin speak in hopes of getting in with the flying spaghetti monster folks and other fundamentalist atheists :-) ?

Humans will go away. It's the nature of the beast. It's evolution. George Carlin said it best. We'll be another failed species and in a billion years there will be no sign we were ever here. Earth doesn't care who or what inhabits it, if anything.
CO2 levels have nothing to do with it.
But rest assured, the last living DemocRAT will blame Republicans.

(some pic)
Caption this.
Fixed.
Look skip fox primitive, you need to stick with what you're barely capable of doing, and that is finding some pic of a Republican/conservative that feeds your seething hatred, and say "caption this."
Anything beyond that is way too deep for you to begin to comprehend.

Nadin, much like cockroaches and venereal disease, will survive mass extinction.

How arrogant (and stupid) do you have to be to think you're so important you can control the climate by driving an electric car and turning the entire planet into a 3rd world country? Well, except we can't even have fire because wood stoves and other warming methods involving wood and matches are contributing to global-warming-climate change. It's like they don't know we're in a cooling period or something. Maybe globull warming causes globull cooling, thus change!

Unless the cockroaches end up steamed and on NJCher's buffet first.

....nowhere near as much as the Human Race is.
Now, where did I put the brain bleach?

What do you think?
Ĺate term abortion, go for it.
That much is clear.
Teh gNads is barren for a reason. Good grief, even the donkeys in Ensenada turned her down.
The submarine guy wears a welders glove just to diddle her.
Dildos go limp.

Even for the direst and most apocalyptic predictions, humans would adapt. Probably the same humans who have the lion's share of the resources now...unfortunately, that includes the DUmmies living in North America.

If human survival is threatened by extreme climate change in a 1000+ years or whenever the next cycle occurs, environmental concerns go out the window.
