My father is in his 60s and I fully expect him to die from a power outage cutting off his AC when he's in his 70s.

That's where I'm at regarding climate change right now. Literally writing off family members.

I have long since written myself off as likely dying in a fight over resources (food, clean water, medicine) with some yokel who still wouldn't believe in climate change. And people act confused when I say I have no motivation at work or hope for the future. Wild shit.
