it's true that some changes are coming down the pipeline, I just dont see those changes having any noticeable effect in the next ~50 years.

if it took 250 years for the climate to warm up (since the dawn of the industrial revolution), then it's going to take just as long to cool down - and that's presuming that we have the ability to make changes in our power generation methods to eliminate our dependence on coal/oil. a bit over 60% of all electricity generation, globally, comes from Coal, Gas, and Oil (in that order). we really just need reliable fusion & enough fuel for a few decades - by then the technology will have matured enough where we can get H3 from space. tangential to that would be to base solar power generation in a L4 or L5 orbit, then beam the power back to the surface.

in regards to extinction/famine - the absolute maximum carrying capacity of Earth, in regards to our species, is somewhere between 9 and 10 billion. that's a hard limit, unless we're willing to live hand to mouth like some people do in the 3rd world (very few folks are going to sign up for that). we're at 8 billion or so now. people arent going to stop having kids unless they're forced to, or there's not enough food to feed them (though as recent decades in Africa have shown, usually not even then). at some point, famine on a massive scale is a nigh certain thing. perhaps we need to depopulate by 30% or so? I'm not a policy maker and neither is anyone on Lemmy, so it probably doesnt matter that much what we think.
