Well, since you ask. It makes me thankful I don't have children (and am unlikely ever to have any unless medical science makes some unexpected breakthroughs/I ever get a date).
It feels surreal to me; the world, in one lifetime, is going to change beyond recognition and entirely for the worse but next to nothing is being done. It is the biggest disaster that humans have ever faced and it is not going to be stopped, it's not even, according to the article, even going to be mitigated very much.
I am glad that I won't be around to see it and when I look at me friends' little children I feel upset. As Richard Thompson sang "There's nothing at the end of the rainbow, there's nothing to grow up for any more".
There is no hope, that's what I feel.
