    There’s this crazy theory floating around that humans only evolved to release all that carbon back into the atmosphere. I assume once we’ve finished that we’ll no longer be needed.

      I thought the theory was that aliens have been farming us to heat up the planet to make it more hospitable for their reptilian species?

      Which is ridiculous, because if that was how evolution worked, wouldn’t it make more sense for that carbon to have never been sequestered in the first place?
