answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/03/2020 answer text <p>We are not aware of any peer-reviewed scientific studies that predict the end of the human race in the next century as a result of climate change.

The evidence does not point to humanity going extinct because of climate change.</p><p> </p> answering member printed Lord Callanan question first answered 09/03/2020 17:09:28 answering member 4336 label Biography information for Lord Callanan
