How long before someone proposes the end of the Earth because of
this (ala. LHC), or invasion from parallel Unvierses?

* Look on the bright side; we get to *make* the parallel Universe
that invades ours. From the description, we get to design it.

*Can we also engineer it to produce something we wouldn't mind
being invaded by, like plants that digest conspiracy loons and
secrete gasoline?

Or simply push them in, and allow the hot air generated to return,
and we place this "portal" next to a wind farm...

I dimly recall reading a sci-fi story (from the '50s or '60s) in which a
portal to another universe was created or discovered, soon finding
application as the perfect waste-disposal system. Until, that is, the
inhabitants of the other world figured out how to return the favour ...
