      Robots are great for situations that don’t require adaptations. Anything that requires novel choices will require humans for the foreseeable future.

            All that coal was created from trees, which are younger than sharks. Nature wasn’t burning then, will not be burning soon. Nature will survive, it’s the industrial farming that will be difficult.

              I thought so too but with the warming trends we are experiencing at unprecedented rates the planet does not have time to adapt as well. We are now looking at a possible Venus scenario if this warming continues at this rate. If we look closely we are still increasing our load on the planet and thus increasing the speed of the cycle. Meaning all flora would not have the thousands of years to adapt to the warming as it has previously in earth’s history.

              We may just kill every live thing on the entire planet because of our greed.

                There are always algues and fish unless we go out of our way and poison the ocean.

                But I can’t imagine that no plant will adapt or is already adapted. Some palm trees, some weed will survive.

                  We don’t really have to do anything extra. The CO2 alone is already acidifying the ocean in addition to the temperature increases that also kill things.

                    Nothing that can’t have been before, when all the coal that is still in the ground was free CO2.

                    Downvoters, is this wrong? I need to know. Please correct me.

                  We’re doing that regularly now.

                  There are always algues and fish unless we go out of our way and poison the ocean.

                  You mean like the Pacific garbage patch? Or the numerous “spills” and effluent pipes that feed directly into the ocean? Perhaps the excessive overfishing or whaling or shark finning? Ocean drilling? Deep water mining? I think we’ve already got that killing the oceans thing managed.

                  There is of course always a chance something will survive.

                  Edit: like this fucking horse tail I’m fighting in my garden that’s been around for millennia. Dinosaurs walked on that shit. Makes a great addition to fertilizer but God damn already…

            There will always be some who will get their thrills off abusing actual humans and not robots. Pedo types, like those names of power hiding in the Epstein files.
