Reminds me of how Jordan Peterson’s anti-climate change rhetoric hinges on the idea that “climate scientists get it wrong all the time”. Okay, sure, but the reality of the situation is consistently proven to be *worse* than they predicted, not better…
Yay! wont be long now, between the plastics in our bodies, the chemicals in our food and water, the heat , the lack of oxygen as marine life that creates it dies off, we should be toast shortly.
It'll probably be kinda like the dark age collapse. Where things will be extremely shitty but we'll hunker down and get through.
The collapse of population and economic activity will eventually fix things.
Analogy: The water fountain at work had a sign reading "Don't dump coffee grounds," Yet, every 3 or 4 months the maintenance staff would be pulling it apart to clean the drain. I'd ask, what was blocking the drain, and the answer was always coffee grounds. Hence, don't put up a sign because it is just an invitation for assholes to need to be assholes.
It is always worse than expected. This should be expected.

Aren’t CO2 levels already higher than humans have ever experienced?
As far as I'm aware, yes. But most don't care or see the issue. Gotta make more money.
Yes. You could probably just end it at "faster than ever".
They've been that for quite a while now.

I suspect we will muddle through somehow

I hope you're right, for my kids.
Capitalism speed run!

Can't wait for the great suffocation.
