in the next 5-10 years we will have mastered string theory , nuclear fusion, plasma generators, dark matter repulsion. Fold space-time consistent with Weyl tensor dynamics. Technological Growth will become exponential, rendering the concept of 'distance' obsolete and turning the solar system into a single, interconnected archipelago. We will no longer be bound by the tyranny of chemical rockets or the slow drag of orbital mechanics. With folded space-time, a trip to the Red Planet will take not months, but minutes. With dark matter repulsion, we will have neutralized the radiation belt that once made space travel a death sentence. And with controlled nuclear fusion, we will possess infinite clean energy to terraform a dead world in a generation rather than a millennium.

Let me explain something to you. The sun throws a certain amount of energy onto this planet. We turn it into food, clothing, shelter, etc. It supports an amount of us, and it took 30,000 years for that amount to become one billion. Then we found a way to use ancient sunlight, sunlight trapped in oil and coal. We started to live off that. What happened? In just 130 years, our population doubled. The next billion took thirty years. The fourth billion has taken just 14. So here's the question. What do you think is going to happen when that oil and coal runs out in, say, a hundred years? When there's ten billion living on a planet that can support only one?

We won't. The Olduvai theory has been thoroughly debunked -- humans so far have only accessed between 1-5 percent of earth's fossilized carbon. Anthropogenic climate change from all the CO2 we've reinjected into the carbon cycle is a threat to people on human timescales due to famine-induced diasporas, climactic shifts and increased heat energy in the atmosphere causing extreme weather events society isn't used to dealing with (though actuaries will no doubt readjust insurance premiums to compensate), and real estate collapse from rising sea levels. Ironically the bigger threat to ALL LIFE ON THE PLANET on a geological timescale is from too LITTLE carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and too MUCH being locked in fossilized hydrocarbons beneath the earth's surface with C3 plants being unable to perform photosynthesis in as little at 600 million years if things remain the way they are currently.

I'm surprised no industrialist republican has yet argued that God created mankind for the express purpose of reinjecting carbon back into the carbon cycle so plant life can continue to form the basis for future ecosystems after we leave earth for the stars or some shit like that desu lol

This is too sophisticated for them. But true, on long term timescales humans (if we survive) will save all life by maintaining the biosphere and eventually delivering life to other worlds.
On the short term though we are releasing carbon at such staggering rates that we are causing catastrophic ecological collapse and in the worst case could regress higher order food chains so badly that we ourselves face societal collapse.

You've been doing the same thing over and over again. Kind of a record actually, nobody else lives their life the exact same way each time. You lost me $200 because I thought for sure you'd not fuck the dog this time, but there you go like clockwork.

>in as little at 600 million years if things remain the way they are currently.
600 millions years is a really long time lmao. Besides, crude oil can be broken down by microorganisms and release its carbon very gradually. On longer geological timescales oil will inevitably leak out of the crust, either in liquid form or as carbon dioxide/methane. This is happening in California, which is why there's an argument to be made that extracting oil from Cali fields actually decreases its overall footprint since it's taking oil that would have leaked out of the environment.

Volcanic emissions also pump non negligible amounts of carbon into the atmosphere too (not nearly enough to even rival current human emissions, but still a good amount). Oil is volatile, so as it reaches lower crust layers over many more hundreds of millions of years it will begin to break down from the heat and leak out CO2.
