It's so weird to see this argument retreat to rhetoric that basically reduces to "What's your problem? It's not like the planet will become a lifeless wasteland. Something is going to survive!"

The median scenario we're looking at now (polar ice melting, large scale extinctions, universal ecosystem disruption, all over a few-hundred-year scale) is exactly the kind of "doomsday scenario" that all you people spent the past three decades denying was possible.
