Question: If global warming actually happens, do you think that it is possible that some human beings could survive?

Hello again shrimpyking. hope year 8 treating you well today. I think we’re all pretty convinced that global warming is happening now, just quite slowly (though quickly compared to how it’s happened in the past).
I think it is possible that humans could survive the conseuquences of global warming for a number of reasons. We’re very resourceful and I’m sure technological/scientific advances would come to our aid. They say that necessity is the mother of invention. It is also true that adverse circumstances (like wars for instance) can spur on the advances I mentioned above.
Maybe, just maybe we’ll manage to slow down the warming and even reverse it and then this won’t matter so much.

Hi shrimpyking….it’s supposed to be happening as we type but we are still here! Seriously, who knows, personally, I think we would probably adapt but if it accelerated dramatically it would cause an enormous strain on the human race. Therefore, if we do something about it now, we can prevent it from happening or slow it down and minimise it’s impact…you are our future and everybody can contribute to reducing their impact on the environment.:)
