We're all focused on our everyday lives while the average global temperature is 1.0 degrees C. above the 1951-1980 average and rising. Our civilization is dead; we just don't realize it yet. Trump will get reelected in 2020 and declare himself President-for-Life in 2024. Four years later, in 2028, we'll be at a 1.5 degree C global temperature rise, climate change feedback loops will kick in with the release of methane from Arctic tundra and methane hydrates from the seafloor. Runaway global climate change will accelerate and twenty years later, in 2048, we will be at a 3.0-3.5 degree C global temperature rise and we'll finally realize what we have done. Sadly, it will be much too late.
