Its gonna be bad. Not everyone is gonna die but so many will and it will be a very slow decay spanning decades. Humanity will be around for a very long time but the conditions for the majority will be really....... Really bad. Somehow that may even be worse than humanity being wiped out at once. There are people that exaggerate how bad it will be like billions will die by x date or we'll reach 4C by 2050 etc. But the more realistic scenarios are looking tough long term. We should still do everything we can to fight this shit.

Don't see it tbh. Most of the climate models don't seem to indicate that. There'd have to be major rollbacks to all emission cuts we've made and go back on the harmful energy sources for the newables we've made. That said even the path we're on is still gonna lead to a lot of devastation
