I mean... obviously it won't make the whole planet inhabitable, but billions will die when 90% of the planet is inhabitable. The last of which might be wiped out when the world fights over access to those remaining 10%.

    No, those are still completely made up numbers. The estimated number of excess deaths under the worst case scenario range from 7 to 15 million people annually by 2100.

    You do know that until 2100, there is still very little effect of climate change?

    The actual timescale for most of the effects is in the span of hundreds of years. Because the catastrophic effects are so far in the future is why people do so little about it.

    Which scenario are you referring to? IPCC? Because one of the possibilities I've seen is that clouds will stop forming over land. Not to mention ocean acidification. That will kill far more.
