I fear we've become the frog. By the time we realize the stove is on it'll be too late.
It's already too late. We've long passed the tipping point with feedback loops in full force. It's not so much the actual change in climate which will get us first, it's all of the side problems this causes:
- Famine and water shortages
- War because of famine and water shortages
(see Syria)- Disease outbreaks because of war
- Plagues because of disease outbreaks and overuse of antibiotics (see anti-vaccine idiots and industrial farming)
- Plus, flooding, severe weather and forest fires etc. (see Russian permafrost)
If I can time it right, I'll die along with the rest of civilization!
