Well, you understand the problem clearly. Until a supermajority of people really internalizes what's going on with the Climate System those of us screaming at them will continue to do so in vain.

That's been the problem since the 80's when James Hansen testified before the Senate about Global Warming. It just isn't real to people.

I expect that millions will have to die before people really understand what's going on. It won't be long now.

We hit one of those "tipping points" in 2015. The planetary albedo has declined enough that the rate of warming has doubled over the last 5 years.

We are now warming at a rate of 0.36C per decade. AT A MINIMUM!

When we blow by 2.0C of warming and agricultural output across the planet has declined by 30% in 2030. Everyone will finally get that Climate Change is real.

At which point it will be too late to do anything but watch our civilization crumble.
