To call climate change 'world ending' is rather disingenuous given that the world has been significantly hotter and colder than what it is now just in the last 100k years.

It was never this hot within millions of years and differentiating between a world ending event and one that destroys economies and societies and eventually most life on the planet is disingenuous in itself

FYI, when folks use terms like "world ending" there is nearly always an implied for sentient life that we care about.
