>Oh my squiggles on a page! Its happening guys!
...what?
Why even bother HAVING an opinion if you're that uninterested in the topic?

I don't have an opinion. I'm here for the boffins to give me one

Oh no, shit hits the wall at 450, at current rate that will happen around 2030.
Nothing will happen immediately, it's just the tipping point - the moment you realize that the river is flowing faster than you can paddle, and there is nothing you can do to avoid falling down the waterfall.

>We know that human emissions are responsible, because carbon fossil fuels have a different isotope distribution then carbon that was in the carbon cycle.

How does the fact that the isotope distribution of our fossil fuels being different from the "natural" carbon in the atmosphere mean that that is for sure the cause? Is there any evidence to back up that claim?

It makes sense that it would be different, but I can't see how you can just claim that without any evidence.

I was wondering the same until I read about the greenhouse effect and how CO2 traps heat.
