Where did they say to just double the estimates?

I'm not that poster, just pointing to what he which post he was referring to?

Boy, the mid-21st century is going to be wild. I consider myself lucky to witness it as an older man. Kids born right now and in the near future will truly have horror lives.

Potentially being included in the extinction of the human race is one of the reasons I get up in the morning.

I decided awhile ago that having children (i'm 21) may be unethical

It would be unethical for all parties involved. But especially the child yeah.

There are literally no perks I can think of, for ever having kids. That sounds like more of a fucking nightmare than dealing with this bullshit alone, because you know you can't really be the best parent you can be in a future like this.

Their estimates work on static data. If you take into account population growth and population density getting higher (that is, processes), you might as well double their estimates.

In broadest view yet of world's low oxygen (Oceanic Hypoxia), scientists reveal dangers and solutions

"This is a problem we can solve," Breitburg said. "Halting climate change requires a global effort, but even local actions can help with nutrient-driven oxygen decline." As proof Breitburg points to the ongoing recovery of Chesapeake Bay, where nitrogen pollution has dropped 24 percent since its peak thanks to better sewage treatment, better farming practices and successful laws like the Clean Air Act. While some low-oxygen zones persist, the area of the Chesapeake with zero oxygen has almost disappeared. "Tackling climate change may seem more daunting," she added, "but doing it is critical for stemming the decline of oxygen in our oceans, and for nearly every aspect of life on our planet."
