I couldn't care less how many humans perish due to our own stupidity, gullibility, and selfishness.
It sucks that other animals suffer and will go extinct as a result of our choices.

MODERATORS
I care about humans perishing due to choices others have made. It's fucked up to tell poor people "I don't care you're dying because you're of the same species as rich assholes who cause the world to burn".
100f is only 37 degrees c?
Yes..."over 100" means above that. At high humidity for long periods of time, it doesn't have to be much above that temperature to kill
the worst part is this also applies to humans. We are COOKED.
Math checks out. Did you have a point?
37 is 98.6F. It's the human body temperature.
Which would be relevant if we weren't highly exothermic.
