Did you think this was a crank cause? No. GiveWell has mentioned this, if that helps lend it credibility. Here’s a quote:
Rising temperatures could also impact human health through extreme heat waves, or cause droughts that might lead to water scarcity and decreased agricultural production.16 More extremely, we have seen it argued that a 12ºC increase in mean global temperature—which is substantially outside the range considered plausible this century—would cause at least one day each year in the territories where half of all people live today to be hot enough to exceed human metabolic limits and cause tissue damage from hyperthermia after a few hours of exposure.17
But I don’t see this taken to its logical conclusion. That’s what I tried to do in my e-mail that I linked to above.
Would whoever downvoted this like to discuss why?
