This is all so true, worryingly many of us have seen it coming for decades, the evidence has been there, you just have to open your eyes and ears, but we are constantly bombarded with trivia, and told we have time to mitigate, and what can we do anyway!!!!
We living with #climatechange NOW..โ€ฆ.
and yet people still think they are powerless and there's time . Whilst we're not perfect myself and Mr DoubleTreble have been doing what we can for as long as we can, sadly it often feels like screaming into the void ๐Ÿ˜ข

But what if it's slower than expected? And we keep Business As Normal going till 2075 before the axe falls? I don't know, 50 years I've been waiting so far. Maybe I won't see it. Maybe my kids won't either.

What's the point. I'm never going to see the rainforest anyway. ;)

Seriously though, I get mildly irritated with the belief that it's all going to collapse in the very short term. Like the /r/collapse view: "we'll be lucky to see 2030". It will be faster than expected but only because we're in denial. But Business As Normal could easily still be going strong in 2050; A mere 27 years away.

Like I said. Read Limits to Growth in early 70s. Still waiting.

@jbond @breadandcircuses @DoubleTreble It's here, just unevenly distributed, and the worst part is that the ones causing most of it are the least affected.

@Mabande @breadandcircuses @DoubleTreble The clarification still didn't come out quite right. Yes, indeed. Collapse is already here, just not evenly distributed. Even in Brexitania it's easy to forget you could find yourself in Syria or Somalia, or Pakistan. And Climate Change is just a bit of weird weather if you're not in Delhi in May. Or Phoenix. Or Sydney.
