If we keep increasing the CO2 could the earth end up like Venus?

Question

Maybe Venus had inteligent life before and they destoyed the planet like we are doing

Answer 1

It is not very likely as increace in CO2 levels on our planet are caused by us (via industry, ext.) and we would die out long before the effect reached a critical stage. With us gone the CO2 level should go back down.
It is not likely Venes ever had any kind of life, much less inteligent life, because the planet overheated very early in it's history. The emergance of life on the planet, had it happened, was more like to bring the CO2 levels down, not up, as it has done here on Earth.

Answer 2

CO 2 increase may be a reality.But increase in vegetation,increase in plants and agriculture,will have opposite effect absorbing CO2 and releasing Oxygen.If man is intelligent and do not disturb ecological balance and increase vegetation,plants and trees,our dear Earth has good chances for survival.
Whether Venus had intelligent life at any time in the past is yet to be proved.Perhaps man has come from Venus when condition
there became unfit for life.

Answer 3

No.

Burning all the fossil fuel reserves on the planet would simply return the atmosphere to the state similar to the state in which those fuels were originally deposited (primarily in the Carboniferous period)

Significantly warmer and wetter with thriving plant life - nothing remotely like the surface of Venus which bakes under roughly 95 atmospheres of CO2, SO2, sulfuric acid, etc....

Answer 4

That's a question for James Lovelock. Read The Ages of Gaia. In that, he paints two possible domesday scenarios for earth, neither of which he thinks is credible, but which he talks about to illustrate the point of runaway greenhouse gases. Both ideas start from the same point but achieve total extinction by slightly different means.

In one scenario, we end up like Venus, but a little colder. In the other, we end up like Mars, but a little warmer. Both those planets have CO2 laden atmospheres, but of course there's more to it than that, and which way our "total extinction" event goes on earth depends on other factors.

Answer 5

No intelligent life ever on Venus that came from Mars, you know the saying Women are from Venus, Men are from Mars

Answer 6

not possible, venus is uninhabitable by creatures like us because it is too close to the sun, because of its proximity to the sun there is no possibility for even running water on the planet, even without such a heavy atmosphere.

Answer 7

No, more like Mars.

Damn the invention of the bumbustable engine

Answer 8

yes

Answer 9

no,because our atmosphere has a lack of sulphur,if we add it,then it might be possible.

Answer 10

yeah dude we'll fry
