Planet earth is not prepared for rapidly growing climate risks.

The planet will be fine don’t worry, it’s mostly us humans that are going to have a problem.

That's what people mean when they say planet earth, though. It's referring to the animals, not the non-biological matter.

Both human and non-human animals of course I assume? The current ones obviously. Life in general will probably be fine, it’s just the specific types of life currently inhabiting earth that are going to have a bit of trouble.

Good news for whatever gets the chance to climb to the top of the heap once mammals are gone. My money’s fungi but that’s mostly because I like Orks.
