    I think it very unlikely that it will end life on Earth. There are organisms that live in volcanic vents in deep ocean water. Something will evolve to fill whatever niches are available as the environment changes.

    I also think that humanity will survive, but even that is not certain. How many individuals die is going to depend a lot on how well we deal with the underlying problems and what technology we are able to develop for surviving under the new conditions.
