Extinction of all life on Earth scheduled for 2031-2051

95. It would depend on what you mean by 'we', and 'consider', I suppose

I personally have read the blog, and decided (see #85) that it's all rubbish, based on a reading anomaly at one station during one month in 2010, which has since been discarded. Most of the blog entry is throwing numbers at the screen in a really bad effort to convince people that there are meaningful calculations in it - but there aren't.

It really is junk science, of the worst sort - the mirror image of a blogger who looks at one cold winter in his home town, and declares the next ice age is upon us, and that all climate scientists have been wrong for decades.

Don't you think that if someone had actually had some decent reasoning, back in February of this year, that by 2050 temperatures on Earth would have made 90% of multicellular species extinct (the kind of effect of a Permian-level extinction event), then it would have had a little more comment by now?

I don't think it's worth a climate scientist 'considering' it, as in "basing any of their work on it". I don't think the thread is worth recommending. I challenge anyone to explain why the blog entry is remotely of interest (it seems to me that many here have accepted the conclusion with no discussion at all of the method it was arrived at).
