- rtkwe 7y agoRight now it looks like CO2 is going to cause a lot strife and war as drought and sea level rise cause a lot of displacement. A huge number of people live on or near the coasts of the world. I don't think CO2 will kill us directly but it'll probably a) get us to kill each other over resources or b) set us really far back (I think a lot of people underestimate how much of our modern economy is super interdependent on stable global trade and supply lines).
