"Prior warming events were so slow that ecosystems were able to migrate across entire continents to follow the temperatures and rainfalls that best suited them. This requires tens of thousands of years at minimum to achieve.">

I feel like humanity has already taken some inadvertent steps to address this point by accidentally spreading the most aggressive, virulent species across the globe as invasives.

I try to plant natives where I live, to help the native wildlife that's currently here. But I have this small sliver of hope that maybe at least the worst of the invasive species will survive what's coming.

in a century or so there will be no significant biosphere left to pull CO2 out of the air faster than it is going into the atmosphere.>

I appreciate that these tipping point events also accelerate global warming by putting greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, but I have to think that once humans are gone, there could still ultimately be a significant slowdown? I gotta review the math.

People also act like all hope is lost. We could start scrubbing CO2 from the atmosphere tomorrow if the political will was there.
