We probably wouldn’t perform as well as we do today towards the extremes. It might be survivable, but “survivable” can be a long way from “biologically optimal”.
I often wonder about this. Is the increase in CO2 making us dumber?
I’m certain the micro plastics and forever chemicals are messing with us majorly. It’s causing more than just higher cancer rates, but all these things are hard to tease out, especially since global we’re all being exposed to so many new poisons over the same time periods. It’s in the rain, the soil, the oceans, and everywhere else
It all just makes me think - how much potential are we each losing to subtle effects of pollution?
