Life on Earth will disappear due to lack of CO2

Scientists predict that life on 'Green Planet' will be wiped out in less than 1 billion years and the reason for this destruction is because of the lack of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

A new study has shown that all animals and plants will disappear from Earth in about 1 billion years. It seems paradoxically that the cause of this 'evaporation' is the result of having too little CO2 in the atmosphere, instead of the excessive amount of this greenhouse gas.

During a national cosmology seminar at St Andrews University, this Scottish biologist Jack O'Malley-James of the University of Scotland said in the future, the Sun will grow old, become Hotter makes the Earth evaporate faster. The result is that the amount of CO2 will be reduced.

When CO ₂ levels drop to too low levels, trees will not have enough of these gases to support photosynthesis and die. Since green trees are an important link in the food chain, when trees die, herbivores will die with carnivores. By then, bacterial species will be the last surviving representatives. But even for most bacterial species, their 'solitary' existence days will not last too long.

After another billion years, the oceans will be completely drained. Jack said: 'The Earth in that distant future will be the enemy of life. All life forms require water, so any form of life that can survive will be limited to places with water, be it in cooler high points or in underground caves. ' . In addition, life forms would then have to deal with extremely harsh temperatures and high levels of ultraviolet radiation.

These are predictions given based on computer simulations of how the Sun's long-term changes will affect the Earth.

Experts are now trying to find ways to limit CO2 emissions to prevent global warming that is out of control. But in the distant future, they will probably have to find a reverse solution.
