Viruses typically jump from animals to humans in environments that are natural human habitats

Which are the same areas naturally inhabited by great apes- lowland Africa, Southeast Asia

Climate change essentially makes everything worse.

It's not like there's a reason this planet is stable at the temperature it is...

lol

The boomers don't care either, and they won't care.

It doesn't affect them.

Its not like scientific data stated that for 100 thousand years there was more carbon in the atmosphere

M e h

They'll die off and leave us to die from superstorms and crop failure.

Humans having factories for 200 years is too much

I think africa is screwed

In what way lol

Once food gets tight, the rather lowly populated west with start withholding food.

(When crops start failing)

wot

@Bleach that’s not true about carbon levels during prior 100k years

They don’t have crops now

Right.

But not zero.

Mkay

What I'm saying is, the west is able to feed itself.

The far east and africa aren't.

I'm not providing any evidence for this so I'm gonna stop.

This ain't a super casual server..

The carbon we’re currently burning was captured during the Mesozoic (oil)

Which was 66-251 million years ago

@Hugo/Viktor what are you getting at

Not really anything.

are you crying about the west

Basically that we need more awareness fo-

Nah

Coal was captured in the aptly named Carboniferous, which was 300 million years ago

I live in the west.

I could choose to not care.

So this carbon has not been in the atmosphere while any extant placental mammals existed, let alone apes

Exactly.

I like how the deniers just say it's "natural".

Is it natural that it is currently taking a fraction of the time it does when it **is** natural?

Things will get real natural real fast as the entire underpinnings of our civilization are destroyed lol

Carbon levels were lower back then ebic
