Yes, but also, even if all the people die, Earth will continue chugging along. Nothing we can do will destroy ALL life. We’ll just be another extinction event in history.

There are bacteria living miles down in the rock below our feet. We can’t do shit to stop life from finding a way.

The last time the temps rose like this, 90% OF ALL LIFE died. And that took place over like 20,000 years or something. We are on track to match that or more in a few hundred. I cannot over state the difference with regards to the survivability of species. We absolutely could reduce this planet to microbial life.
