Lastly, re. the coming Climate Politics.

See my answer to Lani Jacobson/s comment for the long version.

The CRISIS is upon us Right Now. It's already started. Between Global Famine, the US/China War, looming attempts at geoengineering, mass migrations, and infrastructure breakdown it's impossible to tease out what the next few years are going to bring.

A few years ago I compared Future Shock to Climate Shock. I said that Future Shock was something you could try and "surf" and manage. Climate Shock was a black cloud of oily fog that smells like smoke and blood.

A cloud that steals all certainty and makes seeing any future impossible. A cloud we are speeding towards knowing that there is a cliff, hoping that there is a bridge.

We are about to drive into that cloud this year.
