Yeah, what you said. Either way many/most human mortals are screwed. It will make for interesting evening news and great cocktail talk.
"Beastly, just beastly, pass the shrimp please."
I try to think of it as living in the age of the dino die off, only we are the dinos.
aren't we burning the same carbon that erupted from volcanoes that started a mass extinction, the one of dinos? I think it's "just one more dino extinction" theory, but it will be a bit ironic... or cyclic.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('patience', 'I')t all reminds me of an old Gary Larsen cartoon, of an auditorium full of dinosaurs listening to one speaking, "The bad news is, the climate is changing threatening us with extinction, and we all have a brain the size of a walnut." Or something like that, I forget the text exactly. Clear picture, though.

Sexual energy can also "flow up" instead of being "burned down"... and contraception methods are "mature enough".
