Answer 1

d. the earth will become devoid of life due to the changes

Step-by-step explanation:

There is evidence of great catastrophes throughout Earth's history. There is also evidence of great mass extinctions events but life has always find ways to adapt and persist. Climate change could cause a mass extinction specially because climate is changing faster than species can adapt. Is difficult to think that all life will cease to exist at a planet level.
