The cooling rate could speed the planet's inevitable march toward inhabitability -- which will happen millions or billions of years from now, researchers said this week.

"This perspective raises the question as to how fast the Earth has been losing heat throughout the Earth's history, which directly links to the fundamental question on how long the Earth will remain dynamically active," the scientists wrote in a paper published in A group of scientists studied bridgmanite, a common conductive mineral that is found between the Earth’s core and mantle.

They found that it’s 1.5 times more conductive than previously believed. “We found the bulk thermal conductivity at core-mantle boundary becomes 1.5 times higher than the conventionally assumed value, which supports higher heat flow from core, hence more vigorous mantle convection than expected,” researchers added.

Just great, now we’ll spend trillions seeing how to heat up the core while stopping heat production to fight the climate.. Live your lives folks while you still can. What happens in 1000 years will be someone else’s problem, just ask the dinosaurs….

So dig really deep holes. Our hot surface warms it up, and cools down the surface. BTW - This is a joke.

Can we drill a hole and send a few tons of “hot hands” down to the core ?

Aka “the universe is expanding…”

Don't worry humans will be extinct way before this happens

How can we speed that up, by like say a factor of a million?

Global warming will make the earth uninhabitable long before THIS happens.

Lol.... They have to make up there minds Global warming or Global freezing?

good let's drop the climate change nonsense then

Uninhabitable in what a 1000 year's? A million?

Good

Is that related to co2 emissions too? 😜

A new earth Revelation 21:1

it looks like COVID-19 will end then.

What a relief. Now we don’t have to worry about global warming!

I knew it. I just knew it

Wait, what?….global cooling?!!!….sacrilege….how dare the planet be so out of touch!

About time

This is scary

My money is on the generation of youth who walk with their head down while they look at their phone. Anyone worrying about the Earth cooling a million years as the end of life on Earth isn’t paying attention

Well, looks like we don’t have to worry for another 1-3 billion years!

HAHAHAHA 😂

But look at you do you have the rights to your body or can anybody take it why don't I have the right to my body because woman play caveman and take what they want

And we waste our time worrying about covid. Silly humanity.

We need to drill down to the core and detonate some nukes to restart it. Trust me on this.

Let's blame climate change and tax the poor.

Billions of years from now 🤣

'which could speed the planet's inevitable march toward uninhabitability'? Ha,ha!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That seems like a big variable.

I thought we had 20 years?

Nobody cares

I’m confused. Earth is cooling yet we have global warming?

So why worry about “climate change”?
