      Yeah, people don’t seem to understand that it gets fucking horrific soon. Imagine driving down the interstate and you just see miles and miles of dead forests, the smell from the thousands upon thousands of dead animals rotting in the heat.

      Places without air-conditioning will see thousands, if not millions, of people die in catastrophic heatwaves. You can’t escape it. Your brain just slowly cooks to death until you die from heat stroke. And it won’t be just old people…it’ll be men, women, children, your pets, your friends, your garden, your ecosystem. Everything will be cooked from the surface of our earth systematically as the winds and the tides change. It may not happen to you at first, hell, your area may even be able to dodge the worst of it for a few decades, but it’ll come.

      Humanity will be culled to a fragment of what it once was, and the billionaires that did this will blame everyone but themselves. Even now, they build their silly little bunkers, each one has a strategy on how to deal with “the end of the world”, but none of them realize that their money will be worthless, that their glamorous lives depend on a robust, flourishing, and healthy economy. They treat this like a game, ignorant of the fact that they are slowly destroying their future - and we’re unfortunately going to be dragged down with them.
