My brother in Christ, I study this stuff for a living. It will definitely be that bad and claiming it isn't is climate denialism.
They don't have to, the water chemistry will fuck up as the life that can't cope with the temperature change dies off. This will cause the lake ecology to crash the water will be stagnant and need constant treatment, among other things.
Oh that's okay then, a huge chunk of the native ecosystem dying never leads to an unstable environment.
Not only that but this simply isn't true. Honey bees are currently very weak as a species from pesticides, diseases, and malnutrition caused from monoculture farming.
Dude, if you don't know anything about soil health why are you speaking so confidently about it? You know, the nitrogen cycle? The biome of the soil? All the stuff plants require to survive etc?
And yes, the biodiversity of worms is going somewhere. Again, do you know anything about the subject you're lecturing me about yourself?
Yes, it will that's literally what it means. And what do you mean what does clean water with a stable PH have to do with farming?!
We could quite obviously survive the worst extnction event in Earths history? The one that almost wiped out all life? The one that took the ecosystem millions of years to recover from? That great dying?
Also, we have only been here for a blink of an eye as far as the lifetime of the planet goes, and we are adaptable to this environment, not a dead planet. There are plenty of adaptable animals that were once numerous that don't exist anymore.
I haven't been saying anything that conflicts with the our current scientific consensus as far as what I've been taught by ecologists.
Your lack of understanding isn't a lack of evidence. You are welcome to read some journals and fact-check me if you want.
Hey, yeah, cool. The Cretaceous. Remind me how many humans were around then.
Oh yeah, nothing bad happened when the environment of the Cretaceous changed. Not like a ton of shit went extinct or anything.
Also, it's projected to be a 4-5°C increase. Which again, would make it on the scale of the great dying.
So yeah even if we survive as a species, we'll wish we were dead.
The US can't even build a shuttle that doesn't leak piss, no matter how much money they throw at it. I don't trust them to do dick.
