Here is a provocative interview with Guy McPherson, professor emeritus of natural resources, ecology, and evolutionary biology at the University of Arizona. It's a bit lengthy, but well worth your time:
[He fears] that climate disruption is already so serious, with so many self-reinforcing feedback loops already in play, that humans are in the process of causing our own extinction.
"... it's hard for me to imagine we make it into the 2030s as a species."

Should his fears be valid (i.e., we really are "on the brink"), we have to change drastically and now.
Since we won't change voluntarily, that means dictatorship.
But if we do get dictatorship, the dictator is more likely to empower and enrich herself and her friends than she is to save the rest of us.
We are truly fucked.
This would be a good time for the Messiah to make himself known. And I don't mean Neo or Klaatu.
