Scientist: 'Grab Your Ankles And Kiss Your Ass Goodbye'

Man, these scientists sure know how to be a bunch of buzzkills, huh?-

CNN.com (Reuters): Scientist: Planet going back to dinosaur era

Global warming over the coming century could mean a return of temperatures last seen in the age of the dinosaur and lead to the extinction of up to half of all species, a scientist said on Thursday.

Not only will carbon dioxide levels be at the highest levels for 24 million years, but global average temperatures will be higher than for up to 10 million years, said Chris Thomas of the University of York.

Between 10 and 99 percent of species will be faced with atmospheric conditions that last existed before they evolved, and as a result from 10-50 percent of them could disappear...

...Scientists predict average global temperatures will rise by between two and six degrees centigrade by 2100, mainly as a result of the heat-trapping carbon dioxide being pumped into the air from burning fossil fuels for transport and power...

Well, we'll be dead by 2100 anyway. Let Dr. Farnsworth worry about that.
