Don’t forget starvation, that’s a big one. Climate change hits your food supply before it hits you.
Comment on What is going to happen when people realize climate change is rolling in?

For the vast majority of (American) people, their reaction to the true realization of climate change is going to be one of:
- gurgle, gulp, drowning noises
- ah, oh no, gunshots, silence
- so hot today, ugh, sound of body hitting ground, silence
- "That fire isn’t so close yet!" burning sounds, screaming, silence

Or as we call it in America, Tuesday. It’s already here, people don’t realize it. People already have acclimated to “wildfire season,” for example, a thing that didn’t exist until the last 5 years or so in this area, as a totally normal occurrence.

Gotta remind myself I grew up in a doomsday cult and most people didn’t have go bags in their garage their entire childhood.
