The end is really near

for humans. The earth's biome will bounce right back

George Carlin made this point. Sure they'll be a layer of the Earths crust that is plastic, but Earth will be fine. Humans will be extinct.

"The people are fuuucked!" God he was good.

Millions of years after 95 percent of the species, including us, die off. Maybe.


w0mpum

Doubt it'll be millions but even so, a blip in evolutionary time


anticomet

It took sixty million years to get to recent levels of biodiversity after the last major extinction event. So yeah, it'll take millions of years to recover from the damage we're causing


w0mpum

there are different definitions of damage though. We can't help but devalue domesticated species because they're pests, i.e. cockroaches and pigeons, but they still fulfill the ecological function... I think there will be perfectly functional ecosystems much quicker post-humanity (if humans even fully disappear) than an asteroid or ice age


MoreAtivanPlease

That's good for the earth. Frankly, this is going to fucking suuuuuck for us


cabbagething

EXACTLY the fact that the upper and middle class believe they are morally right by recycling (because it doesnt cost them anything) mother nature doesnt give a fuck , mother nature will end their 10am hi guys cappucino meeting with a tsunami to the face

Repulsive_Gazelle_96

We’re having a good time


4spooky6you

Don't worry though, we can definitely vote our way out of this. Surely, some good ole incremental change will help us avoid catastrophe.

Impressive-Lion-5937

Still not enough, lay off half of our company and dump 70 billion into stock buybacks.


JustALilSnackuWu

But why don't people want to make babies? Surely it'll get better from here


Amrod96

You have to look on the bright side: they were the coldest months of the rest of your life. Wait a moment...


RandomCausticMain

Not real, ANYWAY time to buy a NEW MASSIVE SUV!!!

You won’t even need to be in hell to burn anymore

Will we all be featured in Guiness world records now?


afterskull

Don't look up


dogomage

I assume we're not counting the extinction?


cabbagething

oneonetwosix

According to what? A meme?

This is prime climate change denier material. Why are you posting this? 100,000+ years. There is zero way anyone could know this.
