Study: European winters may vanish by 2080

Yeah, but the dinosaurs didn't have cars. Or at least we don't have any evidence of them having cars...

Yeah, but think about all those gigantic stomachs digesting all that roughage. Can you say greenhouse gasses?

As I say, we can make it uninhabitable for us. The Only thing that can destroy the planet is a very large meteor (Or a very fast moving one).

Actually, if nothing else does, the sun will destroy the earth in about five billion years.

true. but if we make the earth inhabitable for humans, we destroyed the earth in such a way that it becomes a useless part of our existence.
we have to preserve the earth to ensure the continuation of our race. no other goal is more important.

and yeah, when the sun becomes a red dwarf, we're pretty much screwed anyway, but 5 billion years is still quite a while

True enough, Shadow. Unfortunately you are a part of a vanishingly small minority that actually understand that.

Oh, and it's red giant then white dwarf.

Ummm...not to say you're entirely wrong, but red dwarf stars do exist...

Yes Gato, they certainly do, but stars the size of our sun become red giants, then white dwarfs (as far as we know, the life cycle of a small star is a bit long for continuous observation). It all has to do with the amount of mass you start with.
