    This is honestly one of the scariest headlines I have ever read.

    I think it is cowardly to place the timeframe this could happen in as decades though. Climate change is accelerating, emissions are increasing and global carbon sinks are transitiong to being sources of greenhouse gas emissions.

    This could happen tomorrow. We could easily be crossing tie tipping point as we speak, there is no sensationalizing this, it will be catastrophic.

      I don’t think that humans facing the consequences of their actions is scary. It’s just what happens. The sad part is it will generally be the descendants of those who acted most harmfully that will experience the consequences.
