Despite what your brother-in-law tells you, no, it’s not “the same heat as every year.”<\/a><\/strong> After the pandemic, the number of deniers of, well, basically everything around us has multiplied to unsuspected levels, and many still staunchly defend that global warming<\/a> “is all a hoax” and that “science is lying.”<\/p>\n\n\n

But science cares very little about what a group of uninformed individuals with too much free time may say, and it continues to make it clear that the planet’s situation is getting worse, and there will come a time when, inevitably, we will all be gone<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is explained by a new study, which claims that global warming will lead to the next mass extinction after the one that wiped out the dinosaurs<\/strong>. This new study, published in the journal Nature Geoscience<\/a><\/strong>, states that the extreme heat to which the planet would be exposed will eliminate the vast majority of mammals in 250 million years<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The lethal cocktail that would lead to this ominous end includes the increase in CO2 emissions, tectonic processes, and the progressive increase in the brightness of the Sun<\/a><\/strong>, causing temperatures to rise even further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unfortunately, all of this would feed into each other: the increasingly frequent volcanic eruptions will release huge amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere<\/strong>, which will enhance the greenhouse effect and further heat the planet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Furthermore, all these climatic extremes will lead to the formation of a supercontinent<\/strong>, which, due to its enormous size, will have much less oceanic influence, making it hot, dry, and virtually uninhabitable.<\/p>\n\n\n

The study, led by Dr. Alexander Farnsworth from the University of Bristol, states that daily temperatures would range between 40 and 50 degrees Celsius<\/strong>, which would be significantly exacerbated by high humidity levels and would ultimately lead to the extinction of mammals due to their inability to cope with heat through sweating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The question now is: will we live long enough to witness this catastrophic end, or will we meet our demise much sooner due to our own actions?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
