Obviously there are many end-of-the-world scenarios out there, but for the purposes of these videos, we chose to focus on these five:
Grey Goo/Artificial Intelligence
Runaway Greenhouse Effect (Global Warming)
Comet or Asteroid Impact
Gamma Ray Burst
Death Of The Sun
From the self-replicating nanobots of John Von Neumann and K Eric Drexler to the gamma ray burst that caused the Ordovician Extinction, and how the death of Venus may signal our own future on Earth, our planet faces a multitude of threats that could end life as we know it.

[@theCodyReeder]

The whole runaway global warming Venus thing almost happened to the earth during the Carboniferous. If it weren’t for newly evolved vascular plants that produced cellulose, a Carbon containing compound that at the time nothing could digest; Increased volcanism during the period would have boosted the carbon dioxide levels to 15 percent. Which of course would have trapped enough heat to boil off the oceans and whipe out all life.

[@Bartekkru100]

Why are you so smart?

[@theobserver9131]

Joe, you have awesome friends!

[@zuthalsoraniz6764]

Regarding the global warming, I also read that it is relatively likely to happen in the far future, as the sun brightens as it ages - iirc, it is predicted that in about a billion years, this brightening of the sun will make Earth hot enough to push it into this runaway greenhouse effect. Could that also be what contributed to this happening on Venus? I.e. initiall Venus was quite well habitable, but after several hundred million years the sun had brightened enough to move the inner edge of the habitable zone outside of Venus's orbited, thus causing its oceans to boil off.

[@solk.posner7201]

Damn, so the plants saved the world once lol. I wonder if we humans can save it again.

[@fourdeck33]

Hold on, hold on! Where does Jesus fit into all this? I didn't see Him mentioned anywhere in that explanation, so I know you must be wrong. How many years before the great flood was this 'Carboniferous' you speak of? Also, global warming is just God's ever-growing love. Repent, sinners!

I used to have real anxiety about the end of the world. My parents didn't let me and my siblings watch cartoons very often so the only channels we watched were History and Discovery Channel. It got so bad that I often woke up from nightmares when I was around 7-8 years old all the way till I was 10, my parents would offer no type of solace, so it was traumatic. When 2012 approached I was really depressed, but wow, we can even do something about the worst kinds of scenarios, little me would have appreciated that very much

[@CarFreeSegnitz]

Dog Man "Suggest climate denial... people: 'reeeee'". Why is this a contraversial topic? It's only a problem in America where Americans have internalized climate change as a criticism of thd American lifestyle. China and India see the problem, trust the science, and look at it as another opportunity to develop nuclear and renewables. The whole debate in the US threatens to take the whole scientific revolution with it. Why trust biology, physics, chemistry when Americans won't trust climate science? The same process which laid out the foundations of modern engineering went into climate science. And the consequences of climate research are waaay worse than physics or chemistry conclusions. But no, accepting the science of climate change would require accepting a change in how things get done in America. Oil & coal, can't touch those! Those define 'Murica. The US would have to transition to electric cars and electric railways and stop flying everywhere. American might just have to cut down on the amount of beef they eat.

"august in texas"... yeah... i was just up in dallas for my brother's wedding a few weeks ago. it was outdoor. when we left the wedding and got back in the car, it was 108. in the shade. later, the temp said 122f. that's 50c for the rest of the world. thankfully it wasn't very humid, but damn.

Ruben de León I may be American but I still think farenheit, pounds, and inches are moronic units.

[@sarsaur9017]

Gibson99dotcom In the east of Spain 34c is 💀 because of the extremely humid coast weather lol

[@wbiro]

Mid-Atlantic here - the humidity and temperature are both high here, which made me think that people (however mindless and sheep-like) will adapt (but only to fashions) (sigh) - and the first thing to change will be clothes - heavy fabrics do not cut it (I've turned to wicking fabrics myself - which are a 100% improvement over cotton, which was a 100% improvement over wool)... who knows, the Toga may make a comeback...

[@Glasher1]

Back in the early 80s I moved to the Huston area for a year to work residential construction (not by the hour but by how much we accomplished which provided great paydays). During that summer, for 30 days straight, it reached over 100 degrees along with the humidity hitting over 90%. We places water throughout the jobs but by 12-1p it was getting difficult to cool off and to hang on to our tools (sweat) because of the pace we were keeping and the humidity. Did I mention the heat? We'd leave for work in dark morning to get a jump on the heat and sometimes we even could see our breath. That always puzzled me (yes I know, the humidity).

[@stopthephilosophicalzombie9017]

Is there an air-tight, rock solid, crystal clear argument that will counter the climate change skeptics? I have been looking at various counter arguments to global warming and they basically amount to: 1) The earth's climate is always changing. 2) The CO2 level has been much higher in the past, even before several different ice ages. 3)The scientists doing climate research are incentivized to believe their own alarmism because otherwise they would lose funding.

[@joescott]

I often wonder this. Like what do you need to see to believe it? It's very simple for me, if the global temperatures start going down, then the scientists were wrong and I'll change my opinion. So what do they need to see?

[@stopthephilosophicalzombie9017]

+Joe Scott Apparently when people have their identities connected to a belief, they will even double down on that belief even when presented with contrary evidence. This is a problem on the left (beliefs about blank slate/sex & gender) and the right side of the political spectrum, but with climate change, the evidence seems unequivocal. Not only does the global average temperature continue to rise, the predictive models typically have been too conservative.

[@Cobropta]

Take a look at the skeptical science website. They thoroughly debunk nearly all skeptic claims with research. There's no one size fits all rebuttal because the skeptic will continuously move the goalpost and change the claim

[@stopthephilosophicalzombie9017]

+Cody Obropta Thanks. I'll check it out.

[@elinope4745]

Check out the youtube channel potholer54. I could be wrong with the number. Anyhow, he addresses a lot of the skeptics. The downside is that it may require the skeptic to have more than a high school education.

Then it gets to the part where she says "I've see Issac Artur's video" and I look over and see the last video I had loaded on my main browser is Issac's counterpart to this.
