How Long Before Earth Becomes Uninhabitable? | Firstpost Earth
Let’s talk about Earth, how far it has come and where it is going. So far, Earth is the only planet known to mankind that supports life. Our planet has nurtured the human race for millions of years. But now, the planet has reached a point of no return because of climate change and global warming. In this report, we try to understand some of the issues that have gravely affected our planet and with this attempt, we are barely scratching the surface. We also try to understand how much time we have until the planet becomes uninhabitable. Does this planet have an expiry date.

This universe was smoke before the all creations according to the qur'an verses (41:11). Then Allaah rose over (istawa) twords the heaven when it was smoke, and said to it and to earth. Come both of you willingly or unwillingly. They both said: "we come willingly" (Qurarn 41:11), (21:30). They obeyed His commands. The originator of the heavens and the earth, when He decrees a matter, He only says to it: "Be" and it is (Al Quran 2:117). Qur'an does speak about the big crunch. 104: And remember the day when we shall roll up the heaven like a scroll rolled up for books. As we began the first creation, We shall repair it. It is a promise binding upon us. Truely We shall do it (Qur'an 21:104). When this great event occurs, the sun will be scrolled seas will become as blazing fire , the sun and moon will be joined together (Qur'an 81:1,2),(81;6),(75:9),(21:204). 36: Verily, the number of months with Allaah is twelve months (in a year), so was it ordained by Allaah on the day when He created the heavens and the earth: of them four are sacred ( i.e the 1st , the 7th, the 11th and 12th months of the Islamic calander - Al Quran 9:36). Who created the heavens and the earth and all that is between them in six days (Al Quran 25:59). He created this earth in two days (41:9) and placed ( i.e. earth) firm mountains from above it , and He blessed it and measured there it's sustenance (for it's dwellers in four days everything in this earth in four days were equal in the length of time) for those who ask (about it's creations) (41:10). So it was totally four days. So this entire universe could be created in six days which means 6 × 1000 years = 6000 years totally. How ? 47: And they ask you to hasen on the torment! And Allaah fails not His promise. And verily, a day with your Lord is as thousand years (1000 years) of what you reckon (22:47). This universe might have to be created in 6 × 1000 years = 6000 years in long period of time according to the qur'an verses. Allaah knows best and exact thing.

[@BlossomBlossom-hu3of]

Allaah's messenger said : The Hour (i.e the day of destruction of this universe) will not be established until the sun rises from the west: and when the people see it, then whoever will be living on the surface of this earth, will have faith (in Islam and faith in the hadith references and Qurarn Verses) , and that is the time, when no good will it do to a person to believe then , if he believed not before (Allaah's messenger Muhammad (pbuh) [(Sahih Bukhari vol 6 Hadith number 159 narrated by Abu Hurairah (rali)] (Al Quran 6:158). This sun will rise in the west side of madina (i.e western side to the arabian peninsula). Muslims are believing that according to the hadith references. 17: He is the Lord of the two easts (places of sunrise during early summer and early winter) and the Lord of the two wests (places of sunset during early summer and early winter). 18: Then which of the Blessings of your Lord will you both ( jinn and men) deny ? ( Al Quran verses 55:17,18). When the sun will be rising in the west to the arabian peninsula ? Will it be occuring at the day of destruction of this entire universe or Will it happen before it ? When the sun rises in the west where the sun will be setting ? Will it be setting in the east of madina or in any one of it's two wests of the arabian peninsula? Or will this earth be destroyed completely when the sun rise will be happening in the west ? If there is no any changes in the sun rise and sun set will it be any glabal warming and climate change ? If there is no any changes in the sun rise and sun set how the glaciers will be melting more in the south and north poles ? Will be going to rotate in different directions from Arctic to Antarctic poles ? How should come entire climate change to the entire world with out any changes in the sun rise and sun set in this world? Western Media tries to intend to put out the Light of Allaah ( i.e.The Religion of Islaam, This Quran and The prophet Muhammad sal) with their mouths But Allaah is bringing His Light every body to know the truth.

Yep, you see a lot of speculation on "tipping points" I was born in 1961 and by the time I was 12yrs old the trajectory was obvious.....one of the problems of communicating observational scientific data is by it's very nature it's hyper conservative.I'm not writing that as a criticism, that's how real scientific research is conducted. Then there's the lag time in collated data, generally years behind current events....right now we are on a path far worse than the most dire predictions....along with a concerted propaganda effort by monied interests and sheer human nature the end horizon is appearing.

[@patrickkelly1195]

Very interesting video, thanks. Your summary of the issues was great, but a little optimistic, I fear. All the evidence, to me, suggests that we are headed for a near-term collapse. Unfortunately, climate change is only one of many aspects of this overshoot (others include soil degradation, collapse of insect numbers, collapse of fish stocks, severe pollution of land sea and air, poor management of fresh water, habitat loss, mass extinction of wild species, increasing pandemic vulnerability, worrying population projections, proliferation of PFAs and micro-plastics, decreasing mineral and fertiliser availability, the persistence of new bird flu strains and their devastating effect on the poultry industry etc, etc) and it is the combination of all of these impacts - together with our quite severe global economic and energy-related challenges, that have led the well informed to their somewhat bleak outlook. And that's before you even consider the increasingly tense geopolitical landscape, the seemingly unstoppable rise of the hard right, and the impact of rapidly developing use of AI in all aspects of our lives. Even climate scientists can be prone to myopia on the big picture issues. They are used to viewing the world though a narrow lens and this can impede their ability to see the bigger picture. A climate scientist might, for example, suggest that we have decades before the worst climate impacts are witnessed, which may be true according to some models, but this belies the fact that the climate is only one of a myriad of issues that threaten our way of life. I find that systems experts and those from more generalised academic disciplines tend to be the ones who see things most clearly, as they seem adept at 'joining the dots' in the way that is necessary to truly understand the perilous state of our predicament. The 'doomer' movement is growing with every failed COP, and now includes some very eminent scientists. Alternatively, the likes of Michal Mann and others who refuse to accept our predicament are now in a minority and their pleas, like your own, are sounding increasingly plaintive against the backdrop of relentlessly bleak news and data. And it hasn't escaped our attention that climate scientists are increasingly reporting that the pace of climate change is taking them by surprise - making their previous models and predictions look somewhat optimistic, to say the least. There have been a huge number of scientific articles and reports in recent years that have highlighted the extent to which the latest data is puzzling scientists. What was thought to have been a slow process is, in fact, racing away from us at breakneck speed. I, for one, expect that trend to continue, and even accelerate, and I see no value in clinging to the hope that our (hitherto ineffective) governments will suddenly see sense, untether themselves from fossil fuel interests and act rapidly and purposefully on this issue. Let us face it...that is simply not going to happen. Rather, the methods that have been used so effectively to date (misinformation, the systematic undermining of science and scientists, the use of funds to 'buy' political influence etc) will be ramped up and will result in further political inertia until we finally enter a collapse phase. Pretending things are not as bad as they are is disempowering people from making the kind of sensible decisions that might give them a chance at surviving climate chaos by becoming more resilient. A person who is of the view that things are 'in hand' and governments still have time to respond will not act with due urgency by taking control of their own food, water and energy needs. It's time to face facts....Our governments are not going to solve this problem, no fix-all technology is on the horizon and things are going to get very bad, very quickly. Let's be grown up and start having this difficult, but necessary conversation.

[@karmadog4565]

You're out of your mind.

[@patrickkelly1195]

​@@karmadog4565 That won't do. Simply posting an ad hominem remark is no substitute for academic rigour and specificity. You should describe precisely what you disagree with, and provide contrary evidence to back up your challenge. To refuse to do so simply makes you a troll, worthy only of a sneer.

[@jazziejim]

No, this man is correct and I very much appreciate his effort to communicate the truth. While it is irresponsible to give up on collective action, reality indicates preparative self sufficiency gives you the best odds at survival. Incredible how some people still attack the bearer of truth. Human evolution is way too slow.

[@pramodpandey7886]

I completely agree with you, but you ended by saying that we should talk about it like grown ups. As you've already said that things are clearly not in our hand and that it is alarmingly accelerating, then isn't the whole 'discuss it like grown ups' giving a false sense of hope that can resolve it, given if we talk it out like adults. I also believe that we're way past the limit, but then how should I, as an individual, approach this. Should I even work for my improbable future? What should I be doing? Would like to get your opinion on this.

[@patrickkelly1195]

​@@pramodpandey7886 Thank you for the question. Yes, our predicament is perilous, but there is still much to discuss. Not all predictions of our bleak future by collapsologists suggest that mankind will be totally annihilated. Some suggest that a fortunate few may survive and may be able to rebuild. Jem Bendell's Deep Adaptation paper provides us with a framework for deciding what a post-collapse future might look like and asks us to start those discussions now, such that we have given due consideration to what we want to retain (about our civilisation), what we want to leave behind and how we want to co-exist into the future. There is much to discuss in terms of the '4 Rs' described in the paper. It really is a useful framework for those discussions. The ecologist William Rees talks about the need for what he calls 'lifeboat building', which means buying some land in an area deemed less vulnerable to the worst impacts of climate change and working towards self sufficiency in food, water and energy. In short, working towards a situation whereby we are somewhat insulated from the chaos surrounding us because we are less reliant upon others to meet our basic needs. Our lifeboats may not ultimately save us, of course, but may buy us time. Jem Bendell, in Deep Adaptation, talks about the need to build local communities to share skills and resources in hyper local economies and Nate Hagens describes the process of societal collapse as a very gradual and slow process (one that he calls The Great Simplification) whereby life just gets harder and harder, more and more expensive until, ultimately, things start to collapse and degrade. Given that the process of collapse will probably be quite slow (according to Bendell it's a process that has already started) our lifeboats may help us to maintain a reasonable quality of life for years to come. Collapse will impact people in very different ways. In the post-collapse world the 'new rich' will be those with land, skills and resources in rural areas and not those with money and luxury goods in large cities. It will mark a huge reversal in, and redefinition of, the notion of 'wealth'. All of this is based upon 'best guess' assumptions of course. No-one really knows how things will unfold, but for me, building my own 'lifeboat' on a one-acre smallholding in France, has given me a focus and some degree of personal agency against a backdrop of helplessness and despair. Follow the example set by one of the UK's leading climate risk experts, Bill McGuire (Professor of Geophysical & Climate Hazards at University College London) As soon as his research revealed the true, horrifying, extent of our predicament, he sold his London apartment and bought a property with a parcel of land in rural Derbyshire and now grows his own vegetables, harvests rainwater and purchased solar panels to power his home. He did all this because he views the climate risks to be near term. This is a man whose job was to analyse the risks associated with climate change, and if that's his conclusion I think it's fairly logical to follow his lead.

Now the end is coming and still nothing is done. One thing you didn't mention in your video is oxygen depletion. In the 1960's there was 24% oxygen in our atmosphere. Now we are down to 20%, a 4% drop. We are using it faster than nature can replace it. As i understand it, we humans need at least 17% to function normally. At the rate we, our industries and vehicles are consuming oxygen we have only 30 years at most before we start gasping. So the race is on, who will win, climate change, food shortage, water shortage or oxygen shortage? The future is not bright people!

I remember in New Jersey, we cut two foot thick ice from lakes, to supply iceboxes in New York. In 1970, we went ice skating on 8 inch thick ice. There has been no ice in New Jersey for 40 years. It is novemberc14 in Atlantic City, and is 60 degrees f. People are surfing, and walking on the boardwalk....some saying climate change is a lie, as nothing has changed in their lifetime.

I believe we have evolution backwards, I think we started with very smart, evolved peaceful beings who cared for the planet, for nature and animals, who kept everything in balance, and from that point on we have devolved into the absolute chaos we now live in, then in the near future when people r starving and cold and sick, they will do what all desperate people do, they will turn on each other, they will take what they need from strangers, then there neighbours then there friends, then who, and in the end the only thing kids will ever learn about is how to survive, how to hunt for food, and kill for what they need and eat whatever’s left if they can stomach it, and we end up back as Neanderthals, not smart, not civilised, just brutes

Isaiah 24:1-6 "Behold, the Lord is going to lay waste the earth and devastate it; he will ruin its face and scatter its inhabitants- it will be the same for priest as for people, for the master as for his servant, for the mistress as for her servant, for seller as for buyer, for borrower as for lender, for debtor as for creditor. The earth will be completely laid waste and totally plundered. The Lord has spoken this word. The earth dries up and withers, the world languishes and withers, the heavens languish with the earth. Earth is polluted by its inhabitants, who have broken its laws, disrupted its order, they have violated the sacred and eternal covenant. Therefore a curse consumes the earth; its people must bear their guilt. Therefore earth’s inhabitants are burned up, and very few are left." 2 Esdras 15:1-9 "Behold, speak thou in the ears of My people the words of prophecy, which I will put in thy mouth, saith the Lord: And cause them to be written in paper: for they are faithful and true. Fear not the imaginations against thee, let not the incredulity of them trouble thee, that speak against thee. For all the unfaithful shall die in their unfaithfulness. Behold, saith the Lord, I will bring plagues upon the world; the sword, famine, death, and destruction. For wickedness hath exceedingly polluted the whole earth, and their hurtful works are fulfilled. Therefore saith the Lord, I will hold my tongue no more as touching their wickedness, which they profanely commit, neither will I suffer them in those things, in which they wickedly exercise themselves: behold, the innocent and righteous blood cries unto me, and the souls of the just complain continually. And therefore, saith the Lord, I will surely avenge them, and receive unto me all the innocent blood from among them."

I will take issue with the claim that it takes hundreds of thousands of years to form an inch of top soil. The consensus online seems to be that it takes 500 to 1000 years for topsoil to form from natural interactions of geology, hydrology, and biology. This can time can be greatly reduced though such as the terra preta soils in the Amazon that are reputed to grow at up to one centimeter a year, or the work of P. A. Yoemans in "Keyline Farming" that rapidly converts subsoil to top soil.

[@sentientflower7891]

The number is accurate as you cannot scale up human intervention on a global scale without exhausting the remaining store of resources in the process.

[@langdons2848]

@@sentientflower7891 that literally makes no sense. Topsoil is built by plant and microbial action, all you need to do is provide favourable conditions for them and they build topsoil for you.

[@sentientflower7891]

@@langdons2848 the conditions on the Earth are not favorable at all and getting worse.

[@langdons2848]

@@sentientflower7891 that's a separate issue to how quickly topsoil forms naturally and can be formed with human assistance, which is an academic discussion. Just saying "the world is dying" (which it in all likelihood is) adds nothing to the conversation about topsoil production.

[@sentientflower7891]

@@langdons2848 well the status of the world seems extremely relevant to any optimistic scenario regarding humans solving the problem.
