Hot. Heat waves. Forest fires. Sea level rising. Floods. Droughts. Water shortages. Extinction of various animals and plants. Collapse of supply chains and resource shortages. Rising nationalism and distrust. Mass migration, mass starvation, mass casualty events.

    I‘m just hopeless that the "policymakers" are honestly doing much to avert it. There is even a hint in there on that:
