gollark: *Technically*, that's not wrong.
gollark: Climate change will cause mass migration and sea level rising and things eventually. Those are bad.
gollark: Apparently in a few billion years various feedback loops and an increasingly warm sun will cause the oceans to boil, and a few billion after that the Sun will swell into a red giant and destroy anything remaining.
gollark: At worst it would probably severely damage it.
gollark: A giant space rock would be very hard-pressed to destroy the Earth.
