Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

Oh humans will survive. We're hands down the most adaptable species evolution ever spat out. Billions of us living as we have been? Definitely not. But make no mistake, it'll be humans, cockroaches, and whatever's going on on those deep sea vents left at the end.

If anything is left, it's not the end. Revolutionary optimism even in the face of extinction, man.

That and the willingness to throw every billionaire into a woodchipper.

It's the end for billions, possibly trillions of living beings though (remember not only humans are suffering from climate changes). There will be some sort of rebuilding sure, but the cost will have been unimaginable.

Oh I know. I worship nature. My god is being killed for Tiktok AI slop and Twitter incel CSA. It's the greatest blasphemy imaginable and there is no suffering great enough for its architects. I'm not naive enough to believe in any kind of inevitable legal justice, but I do believe they'll die hollow, even if it's of natural causes.

I wouldn't overestimate humanity's survival capabilities. There have been over a dozen known species of the genus homo, yet all but one are extinct. The rest have died out mostly due to natural changes in climate.

Sure, we can adapt, but we'd have to put in an actual effort to do so. Reducing emissions is an adaptation, but we're not doing enough in that regard.
