It is the root cause of this bullshit as it's been the main global driving force for a lot of war and bullshit that's happened this century, it's directly at least partially responsible for the economic downturn we've suffered the past few years even after taking covid into account, and abrupt climate change historically causes civilizations to collapse.

Like, the west is straight up running out of water. The Mississippi is being inundated with salt water. Even eastern cities are facing water shortages. That affects everything, especially food prices which we all have seen are through the roof, and those kinds of stressors drive people to violence and cause revolutions.

Even the mass immigration the right wing is using as their wedge issue to push fascism is being caused by climate collapse. It's not just the cartels and corruption. People are leaving central America en masse because climate collapse is making it fucking impossible for them to grow crops, so they come up here to work. And the racist right being what they are are threatened by that.

It's all around us and it's only going to get worse unless other people make the connection and start doing something about all of these problems.
