"Most of us" is not "all of us". Humanity will survive and the survivors will adapt.
Nothing but positivity here.
Always the poor, disabled, marginalised, chronically ill, non first world, will be hit the hardest and die at the highest rates.
When it comes to climate change I'm not sure. We on the poorer side of the world already live in a constant crisis and adaptation and drastically changing our way to live might not hit us as hard as for people in first world countries who are used to a high dependence on industry and globalization. In fact, we're already slowly adapting without most people even noticing.
My professional advice is to not be any of those things when shit hits the fan.
Tries to wish lifelong chronic illness away
Have tried being a millionair? That seems to make problems go away quite easily.
Yeah I would still be ill but it would be “oh that sucks and I can afford it” not “my survival is constantly on the line”.
I prefer being a millionearth since I walk to places.
you know what has been really funny all my life. laughing at the rich people in the hospital.
oh wait, i'm not that much of a dick.
That’s if we survive WWIII, disease, and climate change.
