By 2100, this percentage is projected to increase to ∼48% under a scenario with drastic reductions of greenhouse gas emissions …”<br class=""> <br class="">“We do not quantify human deaths per se because the extent of human mortality will be considerably modified by social adaptation (for example, use of air conditioning, early warning systems, and so on18–20). Although social adaptation could reduce the exposure to deadly heat18–20, it will not affect the occurrence of such conditions. Given the speed of climatic changes and numerous physiological constraints, it is unlikely that human physiology will evolve the necessary higher heat tolerance21,22, highlighting that outdoor conditions will remain deadly even if social adaptation is broadly implemented. “<br class=""> <br class="">Mora et al.
