It explains risks and people's vulnerability at 1.5C, 2C and 3C in world regions by 2050. pic.twitter.com/X55YB0hfwu
What @ClimateBen says is best available science, not fringe opinion. Sources below. And it doesn't happen suddenly AT the end of the 40s. It has already begun and worsens over time. It's a train wreck in slow motion with suffering and deaths and global destabilisation and fascism
Did you know that extreme abrupt climate change heat waves are projected to impact more than 3.5 billion people by the end of the 2040s including some which will be unsurvivable without air conditioning or do you get your news from the front pages of profit-maximising newspapers?

We can lower the impact only in global solidarity
But it doesn't show how global solidarity and alleviating poverty from today onwards can significantly lower vulnerability
IMO, this info should be on newspapers' frontpage everyday as a constant warning where we're headed if we continue to hope for incremental efficiency improvements to our current system setup
Climate change will affect HUNDREDS of millions with impacts like floods, heatwaves, and drought - these places at risk are aka #HOTSPOTS \U0001f525
