Um, no, not really. The amount of CO2 on Venus is many, many, many times greater that what we've generated over the last 100 years. Human generated greenhouse gases will have fubar'd our civilization long before we approach those levels. And if we die, greenhouse gases will fall back to natural variation long before approaching Venus' extremes.

Fixed.

Oh Really? They want to use heat-sensing Spanish men for the job? I call that discrimination!
