How Much Time Is Left for Life on Earth? Scientists Explain
New climate modeling published in JGR Atmospheres suggests that Earth’s biosphere could sustain plant life for up to 1.84 billion years, significantly longer than previous estimates. While the Sun’s increasing luminosity will eventually render the planet uninhabitable, the resilience of specific photosynthetic processes provides a longer window for life than earlier 100-million-year projections indicated.
