Scientists say we’re in uncharted territory because their initial projections failed to consider many factors and since ocean, soils, even trees are failing to absorb CO2 couldn’t it be possible that we just all die of heat? Like could the earth just heat up so fast each year that the original assumption that the earth will heat by 2-3 degrees by 2100 be false and it just heats up 1 degree or more per year until we all just cook to death? The science is alarming especially the fact trees are dying out now. Are we gonna have to live in the sewers or something

    Yes, at least for the most populous places on the planet. Wet bulb events becoming more likely every year. Areas near the poles will be more livable.

    Climate catastrophe is less about extinction vs. not and more about how bad it will get, how many people will die, and what will be left "after".
