Weird. I used to worry about climate change and now I don’t. I guess the world has a way of finding its equilibrium.

I do however worry about the accidental introduction of invasive species and diseases, which seems to be accelerating (see: citrus greening disease).

I guess the world has a way of finding its equilibrium.

Which might mean the end of complex life forms like humans.

The world does not equal civilisation.

What warming scenario on Earth would lead to the end of complex life forms? You realize that humans colonized most of the planet thousands of years ago with stone-aged technology, survived ice ages, lived in all sorts of climates? That the dinosaurs evolved on a world far warmer than we're likely to see? Complex life forms didn't all go extinct back then.

A snowball earth with a thin band of warm enough weather in the tropics is easier to survive on than an earth with 6 months of warm spring to tropical weather and 6 months of pitch black winter darkness.
