Penn State researchers found that the maximum wet-bulb temperature humans can endure is lower than previously thought — about 31°C wet-bulb or 87°F at 100% humidity — even for young, healthy subjects. The temperature for older populations, who are more vulnerable to heat, is likely even lower.
I agree, I think humans are a bit too adaptable to have complete human extinction, but it could totally be like a few hundred people living in absolute hellish conditions

That etcetera is doing a lot of work, friend.🤷♂️

We're not yet to the kind of temperature rises that are extinction events. We're still just at mass die-off and global collapse levels.
