Global warming isn't going to kill all life on earth. The tardigrades aren't even going to notice, given they can live in deep sea hydro-thermal vents and deep space.
Global warming is likely to cause severe water and food stress for humans, some regions are likely to become too hot & humid for humans to survive going outside.

Prevailing winds bring in fresh, well mixed, air from the oceans and pushes the locally generated CO2 away, whether from cities or volcanoes away from the observatory.
This link has more details, and included results from other measuring stations.

You probably actually want the answer to the question "when will the software I care about run on Linux"?
And the answer is "if there is a market for it, developers will port their software."
There are a fair number of games available via Valve Steam for Linux, there would probably be more if more if more people bought games on Linux. Hopefully Valve will put some more time into SteamOS as Windows 10 S is a threat to Steam's business model.
One thing that might also help is to set your browsers user agent to a Linux. The low representation of Linux on netcraft is used by larger companies to justify not supporting Linux.
We need to cut greenhouse gas emissions as fast as physically possible. This is far faster than what is convenient or affordable.
The current scientific thinking is there is a remaining carbon budget, anything we do to slow the amount of greenhouse gasses added to the atmosphere will help. For individual actions one scientist chronicled how he faced needing to change. Both individual actions that he took, and the way he tried to deal with the emotional challenge.
But what we need to do is this The Climate Mobilization where every possible thing in society is being re-engineered to avoid greenhouse gas emissions.
M.U.L.E, players who cooperated had a better outcome for their colony than when everyone was back stabbing each other. (Not that I knew that when I was playing.)
The genre of "German Boardgames" avoids violence and usually has an interplay of cooperation and competition, there are computer implementations of some of the more popular, like settlers of catan.
An additional feature of squid, If you can find some way of getting unrestricted local network access, Squid also has a peering system so you and your classmates could share cache pools.
It does appears that you can limit it to only respond if the resource is in the cache. (never_direct)

I've been trying to minimize my power usage for some time and have measured several different systems using a watts up meter. (Unfortunately filtered through my memory)
Sony Vaio Picturebook C1VN ~12 watts
Desktop without monitor using fanless VIA C3 ~25 watts
I think the newer eden boards are a little bit better than the C3 in a ordinary mother board.
I think my G4 powerbook averages about ~15 watts as well. (Charging is closer to 30 watts.)
The important note is that the laptops include the LCD monitor whereas I was running the desktops headless.
Also to cut down on energy lossage with either the small desktop or the laptop try to get a DC to DC power supply. From what I've read an inverter will sap another 10 watts.

But all those soldiers can do is move the bandit around, they can't even imprison him, let alone kill him.

Who should run the root nameservers instead of verisign? ICANN, IETF, ISO, ANSI, the US FCC, the UN, or some new organization?
