The post is saying that humanity will be wiped out “unless we stop using fossil fuels over the next five years”, not that humanity will be wiped out within the next five years if we don’t stop using fossil fuels. Still a dumb statement but don’t make yourselves also look dumb by not having proper reading comprehension.
The true statement says that the world will end (eventually / at some point) if we don’t stop using fossil fuels by 2023. People assume she meant that the world will end by 2023 if we don’t stop using fossil fuels.
It’s still really dumb because it is saying that there’s absolutely no chance to reverse it now and that we’re doomed because we didn’t stop within those 5 years. So by their own logic, why even try anymore?

I have a pretty good grasp of English and consider those to be saying the same thing. Can you explain?

Ahhh gotcha! Thank you. Yeah worded that way she can’t be proven wrong.
