>James E. Hansen has suggested that the Earth could experience a runaway greenhouse effect and adopt a climate like that of Venus if fossil-fuel use continues until reserves are exhausted.[25]

This... is bullshit, right? I mean that's just not even physically possible. Venus isn't as similar to Earth as most people think. There's more to blame for Venus' climate than just the greenhouse effect.

I accept the theory of climate change, but this idea stretches belief.
