I'm told that even in the most extreme cases it's unlikely to the point of impossibility that the anoxic atmosphere thing will happen.

That's not how that works
"Please tell me I'm being unreasonably doomer about shit."
Ok, you are.
"Yeah ok whatever nerd."
lol i'm not specifically trying to call you out i just thought the interaction was funny
no one want's me to be wrong more than me but you really haven't said anything stronger than "lol don't worry about it"
well, to be perfectly honest, worrying about it doesn't seem to be doing you any good. honestly? most of that shit is out of your hands. gotta accept your powerlessness at times, doesn't make it better but you can then focus on shit you can actually affect.
The worry is the motivation for all my irl activities
odd, for me anyway, as worry just contributes to anxiety and thus paralysis.
For me excessive worry and doomerism were symptoms of depression. Once i got on meds, i can still look at the realities of the world, be against them, be radical, etc but it doesn’t cause me to feel so hopeless that i don’t leave my room for 3 weeks at a time anymore. And yeah maybe that is numbing out the true scale of how wet should be feeling about the horrors all around us, but it’s nice to have my life and ability to function back.
So if that’s what’s driving your feelings, you should do something about it medically: therapy, pills, etc.
But if it’s not depression’s manifestations, just know that the future is unwritten and really interesting things could always be on the horizon that change everything. But if not at least we can say “We told you so” i guess lol.
the specific thing you're worried about is kinda known about though?
really? ya'll know the parameters of phytoplankton extinction? please share cause your data ain't from this planet
