That world is Venus, Earth's "evil twin," which was once nice enough — until something went wrong and the atmosphere began trapping a little too much heat. Scientists aren't positive precisely how events played out,

Fake News. Venus' lack of a meaningful magnetic field left Venus pretty much defenseless against the Solar wind. Most people believe that is what turned Venus into the hellhole that is is.

Unless syrafoam cups or plastic straws will cause the Earth's magnetic field to collapse, there isn't too much to this article.
