The deep economic downturn and the record-smashing disasters of the past few years have already exacerbated media myopia and compassion fatigue to help those around the world staggered by floods and droughts.
And that suggests another deadly climate impact — far more difficult to project quantitatively because there is no paleoclimate analog — may well affect far more people both directly and indirectly: war, conflict, and competition for arable and/or habitable land.
We will have to work as hard as possible to make sure we don’t leave a world of wars to our children.
