An asteroid impact or super volcano eruption has the potential to kill every single human on earth and end the human race. That’s what I mean by existential threat. I feel like many people think of climate change as something that’s on the same scale but it really isn’t. Saying stuff like “climate change will ruin us all” just isn’t true. There are degrees of bad and while climate change definitely is up there in the bad end of the spectrum there’s still events that are orders of magnitude worse.
What am I wrong about? What happened to Venus was caused by the eruption of super volcanoes. That’s the exact example I used above of an actual existential threat.
I don’t know the details, but I’m pretty sure greenhouse effect has something to do with it.
But it doesn’t matter, it’s beside the point. This person obviously means global warming could make the planet much hotter than we want, inhabitably hot like Venus. Not that we are literally Venus

If we trigger tipping point after tipping point, we can turn earth into venus. You’re just wrong.

Doomerism is a vibe. You’re gonna have a hard time talking people down around these parts.
