    I’m stuck on a planet whose civilization is rapidly turning into a feudalist dystopia. We’ll all be lucky to have roofs over our heads in 10 years. Also, it’ll be impossible to survive without air conditioning. So no, I am not okay.

      I think that is the most negative scenario of what could happen. I mean, you hear and see the effects of climate change more and more around you. I am also extremely worried about it. But I have still some hope that we find ways to at least keep it liveable. I do see some progress. It is not fast enough, but I hope that it will go faster once the effects become more obvious and more people actually feel the pressure. I do not think we can complete avoid climate change anymore, but we still might be able to mitigate the most horrible effects. That is what I see in the scientific papers on it, at least.

      The only sure way we will not make it, is by giving up.
