I just read on a German news outlet that the IPCC — Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change - stated the world would go into turmoil if we should not stick to the climate goals of e.g. the Paris treaties.
So, if climate change continuous further, because we keep going on the same road, floods will increase, sea level will rise and hit millions at poor regions coastlines, people displacement will increase, more species will die, less drinkable water will be around and all of this of course for the poor two third of this world way before you get it.
You, reading this blog, must be part of either the developed world or in a privileged position within the poor, because you have internet access.
Keeping going, that would be the downfall coming true.
Continuing being anti-social against nature, means that we continue being anti-social with each other. After the poor regions of this world turned Mad Max it will hit the developed world ultimately and the worst, greediest among us may live their ultimate sadistic dreams.
Life on earth is based on a simple rule that was put in words by Charles Darwin:”Survival of the fittest” That means if you don’t fit in you die and by the Religous: “God is good”.
We will die. Live ends some time. We can increase changes to die or increase chances to survive our actions from changing a light bulb using the office chair on wheels being drunk to sobering out and stepping on the cleaned desk, with every single action. That is the real butterfly effect.
Before we take down nature with us, nature will get rid of us like it got rid of the Dynasors or Homo Neanderthalensis.
To all those that propose gangsta culture, drug use, greed is good, profit over people, that do not give credit, that do not share, that copy and paste without reference, that push towards a dysantrop society I have a hint:
Check a history book on Europe in times of turmoil. Last was the Nazis creating WW2, one of the first was the Romans pushing into Terra Incognita and the Varus Battle aka the Battle of the Teutoburger Forest. Check how we Europeans fought than and be aware, it is more likely that we both won’t survive it and die a quite painful death than anyone turns God King.
