A Climate Change Paper So Depressing It's Sending ...
I strongly believe that every currently living person on this planet will die, hopefully just because of old age.
Not sure why you assume there will be 7.2 billion violent deaths.

If you're going to go from a planetary population of 8 billion to one of 800 million due to global warming, I'm pretty sure that there's going to be a lot of "not because of old age".

I believe in the goodness of people and our ability to resolve things in a less violent way, even during times of scarcity and global warming.
Maybe that's too optimistic.
