What timeline you living in?
Capitalism requires human sacrifice and suffering in order to function. Most economic systems do, unfortunately. Wage slavery is still slavery, but modernized. That way, we all can be slaves.
Hopefully people won’t stand for this, dying in the heat because your boss said you can’t have water or a break. It’s just so absurd, there’s no way people will accept this. I hope.

Yes, I’m saying after that, literally in our final years, at the bitter end, even if we live long enough to see our sun begin to die and expand, the poles will be the only habital places on earth for a fleeting moment until we’re finally extinguished.
We are completely screwed. One reason nobody in positions of power are doing anything is because they know this, and also money. All these green initiatives are simply another handout or money grab until the end. Not that we shouldn’t try or stop inventing new technology, but we must keep our expectations in line with reality as well.
To answer your questions though, yeah, in our final years, humanity will be split between the North and South poles. Areas around the equator will be too hot to sustain human life. I wonder what our communication would look like then, being unable to physically travel between poles.
Anyway, this endgame scenario is probably a bit past our lifetimes now, but not by much. We will get to see the beginning of the end, so to speak, probably around 2030s-2050s climate change will become extreme enough for it to be undeniable to the masses. Expect mass deaths from famine, disease, heat, drought, extreme weather, inability to grow food, etc., the usual, but worldwide.
You can escape it for a while but eventually the entire planet will become hostile to most life as we know it. Maybe some microbes will be able to survive but not much else in the way of more complex lifeforms.
What about the year after that?
“And we fight. We fight like hell And if you don’t fight like hell, you’re not going to have a country anymore.”

This is what he told the crowd on TV right before the attempted insurrection.
It was an American named Eunice Foote that detailed the mechanics of the greenhouse effect, but, give or take, it was also around the same time that many scientists came to the same or similar conclusions about this subject. So yes, we’ve been warned for over 200 years and have done exactly nothing to solve the problem. Why? $.
More like over 200 years ago. There was a french female scientist that discovered the greenhouse effect before John Tyndall but I forgot her name and I’m at work rn, can’t search for it.

You mean logarithmic? It wouldn’t look as good at first but maybe over time the line will become at least linear, hopefully.
That is one beautiful graph!
This is why humans will never solve big problems like climate change. We can’t see past our own nose and it’s fucking embarrassing.
