What Hemingway said of bankruptcy, that it happens gradually then suddenly, is also true of natural disaster. This ‘tipping point’ would be a catastrophe, an extinction-level event. And it will happen fast, maybe inside a day. History shows we put our entire lives on hold to fight Hitler, for 7 years. This risk is FAR greater than Hitler. And what are we doing? Mostly nothing. We should be giving up pretty much everything, our jobs and recreational lifestyles, to fight climate change. I honestly think many are not seeing how perverse this situation is. This can end civilisation as we know it.
