If we get runaway climate change it’s the end of ALL life on earth, not just humans. Humans will probably survive the longest, because we can create artificial means to sustain us.
Humans are already surviving from Sahara to beyond the arctic circles, I don’t think other species are capable of that, except maybe bacteria.
Of course the planet doesn’t give a shit, it’s just a big rock. But to say the earth is fine is wrong unless you don’t consider life a factor at all.
Definitely not the end of all life on Earth. Most of it sure, but there are certainly living organism which are going to survive, just like they did the other times this had happened on Earth.
All that life living on chemical soup from the geothermal vents at the bottom of the ocean ain’t gonna give a fuck about temperature fluctuations far above.
Naw, look at the dinosaurs and the ice age. Life evolves, life survives. The life forms we know of today are dead and who knows what life will look like in the future. Never forget water bears exist. Even if life needs to crawl back up from the ocean it will. The humans are definitely fucked.

The Holocene extinction event is just going to be the sixth one so far, and it certainly won’t be the last. As the saying goes, “life finds a way”.
We just won’t be around to see it.
When the seas are boiling and everything else is hotter than that, I don’t think so.
If that was the case, why isn’t there life on Venus?

The earth core is hot too, if the surface gets hot everything in between gets hot too.

The sun has 7 to 8 billion years left. That’s a long time for life to return after we’ve fucked ourselves out of existence.
