[In regards to global warming, it’s better to ask ourselves, “What is going to happen”, now — rather than, “What did we think was going to happen”, later.]
As long as ‘greenhouse gas levels’ in the biosphere continue to rise, all else is secondary. And since everything is connected, if we want to survive and thrive, we need to be aware of each and every issue’s connection and association with global warming. To the degree that we do not do so, then to that same ‘degree’ global temperatures will inevitably rise.
Meanwhile, the worry and fear about ‘creeping climate change’ is justifiably spilling over into other worrisome areas and amplifying overall angst. Indeed, a general reluctance to converse on the subject or to factor it in as a variable regarding increasing depression in our populace is indicative of the seriousness of the underlying fear factor.
Note: One obvious direct connection between global climate change and geopolitics is the example of the ongoing Syrian war.

Let us keep in mind that the more pro•active we are at the international level now, the fewer draconian re•active measures we will be forced into later when the ‘shit really hits the fan’.
