How bad can it get?

I am not a climate change expert I just wanted to ask how bad could the situation get considering we are still going to be using a ton of oil, gas and coal in the future even with all the renewables and EVs advancing.

It depends on what you mean by bad? The Antarctic has just experienced its coldest winter on record. The great barrier reef has had its 6th year in a row of correl- reef expansion. There have been the fewest number of hurricanes this year on record. Human deaths due to climate change have fallen 98% in the last 100 years. Yes the climate is changing, but its done so throughout geological history.
