At no point in the geological record has atmospheric carbon increased this quickly. We do not know if the systems can adapt quickly enough. Just because it's not going to happen in my lifetime does not mean it's not going to happen.

I never said it wasn't going to happen.

Also, I never said anything about carbon increase rates.

I said something about evolutionary adaptation, and we have seen that happen in much shorter time frames.
