Energy/heat and carbon are two different things, when we add 636 kilowatts of energy for every 60 litre tank of diesel then we are adding some energy to basically a closed system, 99.9997% of the atmosphere's mass is within 100klm's, that we pump all this stored energy as heat into.
In a sq metre of air there's 25 trillion trillion molecules, for every million sized molecule we are adding 2.5 particles every year and there's 100,000 sq metres between you and space, for every one of these molecules of CO2 we release, it joins to two oxygen molecules trapping any radiant heat while sunlight can pass through it because the wavelengths are different, going to 500ppm, a 25% increase would most definitely be the recipe for runaway warming.
We are currently warming faster than 8.5 pathway, there has been a 175% jump in global decadal warming since 2010, I think Sabine meant "Like Venus" but the mass extinction time you are talking about, 96% of all species went extinct, something we should concern ourselves with now because that time it took the earth ten million years to recover.
I looked at that and the amount of lava that was around and it took 900,000 years. I calculated the amount of sulphur it admitted, it equalled 2400 years..as I say, ten million years!!
