And the lefties now have justification to tax us out to a billion years from now.

Reduce co2

the very thing all plants and phytoplankton require to produce oxygen

and this is what you get.

So we need more CO2! CO2 = Plant food = photosynthesis = Oxygen creation = humans inhaling oxygen and exhaling CO2.

Just like God intended!

As for the methane, we will find innovative ways to capture and put that to use for our energy needs.

They got the acronym wrong!

It isn't the "Great Oxidation Event" (GOE)

It is "Great Oxidation Reduction Event" (GORE)

Assuming the oxygen goes away within 20-30% of the earth’s remaining life, wouldn’t that be around 1.5 billion years from now? WOW, as If I didn’t have enough to worry about already!

"The atmosphere after the great deoxygenation is characterized by an elevated methane, low-levels of CO..."

Sounds like a win-win to me. We'll have all the methane we need to heat our homes and the greenies quit their incessant nagging and harping about CO2.

Not to worry....

Hang several of these around in your house and they will compensate for the lowering O2 level. The efficiency is increased with plentiful plants produced at the second drop level.

OMG! We only have around a billion years and change left!!! /sarc

Lots of things can happen in the space of a BILLION years. Planets are formed and planets die. It's the physics of nature. This moronic leftists want to play God and mess with nature. That NEVER turns out well. They're so stupid, they think they're smart.

Voices of gloom and doom working overtime these days.
If that solar flare misses us, there's still the meteor.
Should that fail, it's climate change and wasted oxygen. As a last resort, the breeding of Killer Clowns in DC will surely do the trick.

Brilliant Scienticians: "What's more, the researchers behind the study say that atmospheric oxygen is unlikely to be a permanent feature of habitable worlds in general..."

Same Brilliant Scienticians: "it'll be the end of the road for human beings and most other life forms that rely on oxygen to get through the day, so let's hope we figure out how to get off the planet at some point within the next billion years."
