Continuing with my lurking on climate related subs it seems like despair has completely taken over
Think what is happening in Haiti as we speak. Gaza. Ukraine. That's where we are heading. That is our trajectory. There will be green zones, but they will be under siege by the displaced and forgotten. Just a guess. I don't see anything that will really stop it. The inertia in the systems is profound. It will take more energy than was used to create it to turn it around. But maybe this is an opportunity to change. It could happen. Who knows? History tells another tale. Complex societies collapse. As in every single one.
Now the Gaza and Haiti comparison interesting because I'm seeing more and more talk on climate related subs about “climate refugees” I remember a comment (I can't find the thread anymore) where this redditor claimed the central american immigrants currently crossing the US border are climate refugees running away from draughts, which makes me wonder if they're going to start labeling every single economic migrant as a “climate refugee” from now on as well as labeling violent deaths in Central American (which is an ongoing thing for decades due to political instability m) as climate related deaths attributing their instability and poverty solely to climate Change.
And even fewer places to grow crops. Most of the worlds breadbaskets will be incapable of growing foodstuffs.
Extreme food insecurity fearmongering
We and the other life on this planet are going to be continuing the 6th mass extinction caused by our materialism.
Supply lines will be unreliable, electricity, water, in the developed world will slip into a state of disrepair.
I thought it was hyperbole but some people there seem to believe Mad Max is some sort of documentary 
We spend a lot of time indoors or in closed spaces because of temperature extremes. Our food has changed dramatically because a lot of crops won't be sustained. Coffee for example will change to a different variety
Climate lockdowns and eating bugs 
Imagine Gaza × (1,000 - 3,000)
Humanity is in a fear spiral and there is nothing so deadly as a scared human.
Xenophobia runs in our DNA. Clan warfare and scapegoating will run wild and there will be a great war of attrition.
Financial markets are already collapsing in a wealthy country like the US as the private insurance industry is unable to keep up with wildfire and flood risk.
Bonus thread on the economy
One simple rule: You can't have infinite economic growth on a finite planet.
Sustainability, equilibrium, steady state, call it what you want. But growth can't continue. Economic inequality can't continue to increase
Don't these “people” understand degrowth means more poverty and inequality? Unless you mean more equally poor !neolibs
They want more green power plants, more housing, more public infrastructure all of this boosters GDP growth, the only coherent degrowth turds are neo ludites
