If the question refers to the fatal future effects of climate change caused by increased atmospheric CO2, the answer is roughly 4000 tonnes CO2. According to one paper, burning 1000 tonnes of fossil carbon causes the premature death of one future person. That's assuming that humanity will burn a trillion tons of carbon altogether. The global mean surface temperature will then increase by 2°C, and there will be a billion premature deaths as a result. It's only a very rough estimate (order of magnitude), but it has enormous ethical and political consequences.
