I have a degree in postmortem science and hobby in anthropology/archeology/paleontology. The biggest extinction event this globe has ever seen, the Permian Extinction, where over 90% of ALL life (96% of ocean life) went extinct, was from pollution and a mere 10°C increase in global temperature. That's all it took to decimate life on earth. The pollution and heat came from volcanoes, but we are on the same path. It's already gone up 1.6°C... I do think humanity will survive, but not the majority of us.
Some of my family doesn't believe in climate change, and/or is religious to the point that they don't believe in carbon dating and core sample data. I wish I could make them believe, but no data in the world will work.
I was part of a documentary on the largest fires in recorded history and so many were within the last 10 years it was terrifying. One in the forests of Russia was still ongoing when the doco was finished and RELEASED!
I got banned from (later re-added to) r/neopets... a person was seeking help about getting back their old account, and I said they'd know which email was used because the MASSIVE neopets hack is on most people's identity theft reports and online security data. They don't want scammers to know about the hack, even enough over 40,000 accounts have been already stolen and a group in Brazil is making over $20K USD a month selling the rare/limited digital items, for real money, to those who don't want to grind.
I pleaded and they let me back in. They take it very seriously.
