Don’t worry, climate collapse will render industrial agriculture extremely difficult in the current form and society will collapse from there. It’s really a tossup as to who gets it worse, but the whole world will be thrown into chaos and any retirement plan that you DO have will be obliterated and stolen by technocrats and before they too crash and burn.
I wish that it were any other way but every single time I see something about the climate, it is scientists discovering that things are actually happening sooner and worse than they thought. This has been happening for at least 15 years. What was once “2100 or beyond” became “by 2100” became “by the end of the century” became “around mid century” became “by 2050” became “it could happen any day. It may have already tipped over the edge”
Watch this summer in India. Idk exactly how el niño affects India but they have been getting record heat already. The el niño is going to be “record breaking” and the year was already going to be abnormally hot.
Bold of you to assume capitalism survives the Gen X retirement 😅 when you go from families of 8+ children to 2 in one generation your existing pension mechanism and markets that require net contribution to function don’t compute.
Just keep an eye on the median age of most advanced populations that’s the clock lol
Curious because as gen z the climate change end of the world has been moving back consistently for me until about covid. My first memories was 2010 then it got pushed to 2012 then 2016, 2018, 2025, 2030, to 2040 and last I heard right before covid it back down to 2035. Could just be I was surrounded by propaganda though.
Idk what you are referring to but maybe it is the point of no return that people have been talking about? Like we have until such time to act? But they also were trying to stay below 1.5°C but now it’s a pretty foregone conclusion that we will hit that this century. So now it’s 2°C.
We have been bobbing just above and then going back to a little below for a little. We haven’t had a full year of 1.5°C global average. This year we will go over for good I think, though.

I’m tired.
I expected more wetbulb temperatures happening everywhere by now. I no longer expect climate change alone to wipe us out.

Last year, my co-workers were working in 40 degrees temperature, building a greenhouse for plants…
…I was also working on the actual production lines, which have no AC of course, as that would be too expensive.

We already hit 1.5 °C…

You’re looking at cultural hysteria 'end if the world’s, not the very real oncoming collapse of our biosphere.
Nutters always think the world is ending, and they e always got to push it back when their mental illness doesn’t come through.
But in this case, we have models that, as they are refined, show us just how hopeful the previous “worst case” projections were.
