We're all gonna die, aren't we?

[–] Dmian@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

Sooner or later, yes. Nobody is immortal.

Now being serious, it’s possible that a considerable portion of the population will die in climate related catastrophes. Famines, droughts, floods, heatwaves… we’ll see a lot of natural disasters. It’ll be gradual, though. One event here, another there. And it’ll get worse with time. By the end of the century, humanity may be in a delicate situation.
