OK
This is THEEE BIG ONE
I would almost rather suffocate from high levels of inefficiently burned hydrocarbons and the eventual, and not too far off, desiccation of all life on the plant from out of control solar bombardment (the temp of the sun (surface) is 10,000°F ((yah count the zeros)) and unprotected objects in space near earth reach 250°F.
