Even if CO2 did result in global warming and it were all Anthropomorphic Global Warming (AGW), the scare mongering about a "runaway greenhouse effect," pending Venaforming and the end of all life on earth can be dispelled by knowledge of the Paleocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM), realization that the PETM was a time of wide biodiversit…
Even if CO2 did result in global warming and it were all Anthropomorphic Global Warming (AGW), the scare mongering about a "runaway greenhouse effect," pending Venaforming and the end of all life on earth can be dispelled by knowledge of the Paleocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM), realization that the PETM was a time of wide biodiversity, and a look at this graph with awareness that the last two data points (for 2050 and 2100) are pure modeling speculation.
Even if both ice caps and all glaciers melt, if sea levels rise 200 feet, and storms make ocean navigation more difficult or impossible, it will not wipe out all human life, let alone all terrestrial animal life. The real danger is thermonuclear war and a resulting decades long nuclear winter, but few are worrying about that.
