I no longer say “climate change” – instead I now call it what it is, the “climate crisis.” If you don’t think it is a crisis, I recommend the following readings.

Both papers – in very different ways – make the same argument: we are on a runaway trajectory now. We are already in a crisis that renders nearly everything else a rounding error. If left unchecked, the climate crisis will rapidly destroy the underpinnings of modern civilization.
I am keeping this post intentionally short. Go read the papers instead. More later this week.
