This is the place for discussing the potential collapse of modern civilization and the environment.
Collapse, in this context, refers to the significant loss of an established level or complexity towards a much simpler state. It can occur differently within many areas, orderly or chaotically, and be willing or unwilling. It does not necessarily imply human extinction or a singular, global event. Although, the longer the duration, the more it resembles a ‘decline’ instead of collapse.

Is that what they call science now? Speculating about the total number of deaths in the next 84 years? Here are some facts:
"Some 363,500 people die annually from cold, while 43,700 die from excessive heat." Even if the dooming calculations came true, the deaths from cold will still be considerably higher, and the overall death count lower.
The rest is making things up.
