Peter GleickYou know that metaphor about how a frog in a pot on the stove doesn't know it's heating up and doesn't jump out until it's too late?
The pot has started boiling.

My opinion (a humble citizen climate warrior for the last 20 years reading the science and policy debates) We are likely headed for some form of civilisational collapse, but hard to determine what that means exactly, which will depend on regional factors, good governance, climate adaptation and building resilience. It will be more chaotic, not just the weather.

Well, civilized is debatable. But yes, all the imaginary systems will collapse because they're imaginary and entropy is a thing. Governance doesn't exist🤣 The world's governments have already thrown us all under the bus😕
