I think she's shooting herself in the foot with this one.

The climate will continue to get worse the longer we add more greenhouse gases to the atmosphere via artificial processes. But the world will still exist in 12 years. And so will civilization and life as it is now, barring an asteroid collision or cosmic radiation or supervolcano or man-made supervirus or nuclear war.
