Climate-driven extreme heat may make parts of Earth too hot for humans. A study findings revealed that a rise of 2 degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels would subject the 2.2 billion inhabitants of Pakistan and India’s Indus River Valley, the one billion individuals in eastern China, and the 800 million residents of sub-Saharan Africa to prolonged periods of heat exceeding human tolerance each year.

To possibly fix this, vote for people who'll start drastic geo-engineering and who'll make laws that'll jail everyone who:

  1. has kids unless their community has a fertility rate of 0.01 (this needs to stay in place for several decades),
  2. drives vehicles that run on fossil fuels or electricity,
  3. flies,
  4. ...

The nazis killed millions of people. If you have a kid in a community with a fertility rate more than 0.01, drive, or fly, despite our current human overpopulation, then you'll be killing billions of people and causing a mass extinction event by making the biosphere unlivable.
