The end is Nigh apparently

Yeah we are probably screwed. With engineering it is usually best to go for conservative worst case scenarios when doing calculations, that way the outcome is going to be assured. Most people are doing the opposite and being unreasonably optimistic and magically hoping that everything will be OK if we carry on as we are. Sort of wishing the problem away. It is unlikely to work. Things are already getting worse.
