| As for mass extinctions, do you mean by asteroid strikes? Or maybe Snowball Earth? Remember that in Snowball Earth, the problem was cold, not warmth. As for asteroid strikes, those were not the result of climate change. Are you serious? https://sustainability.stanford.edu/news/what-caused-earths-bi... |

| It might be delicate in your imagination, but that does not mean that it is at all delicate. If collapse were that easy, it would happen time after time after time and we would not be here. Are you a climate expert? 99% of climate scientists around the world predict some level of negative consequen... |

Yeah the government, CIA, FBI and FAA have been down this line already but have stated they don't know who made them and why they sent them so we are back to square one. |
