What Temperature Does the Earth Burn?

Supposedly, Ray Bradbury heard that the temperature it took to burn a book was 451 degrees fahrenheit. If that's what it takes to burn man's greatest creation, what temperature does it take to burn down the rest of the world? There are no flames, there is no danger, there is only life in an unnamed city, in an unnamed country, in a vague world where happiness is eternal. For a price. The price is free will and knowledge, the reward is any product you can imagine. A man named Jackson is the prototypical male in his late 20's. He has a great job, great friends and a great home, but while utopia is often dreamt of, it is seldom seen with waking eyes. And Jackson is going to see what it is like to crush your own paradise with your bare hands. His world is ending. But that doesn't mean the Earth is burning with him.
