Baring a truely massive effort the sun'll cook us in the next 500m-1bn years. It's getting hotter as it ages (4.5bn years ago it was only 70% its current luminosity), and will reach the point where even 0% CO2 will be too much greenhouse gas and begin evaporating the ocean as stage one in making Venus 2.0.

You're the same age as my little brother (who's 2" taller and 40 lbs heavier, but that's beside the point :-D). I was born in '61, graduated from college in '84, and started programming professionally in '80. I worked my way through college as a programmer / technical writer / slave.
