In the short run only the poor are doomed.

In the long run (50 years) we are all doomed.

In the history of man, it has never been an advantage to be over 65, until now.

Great article, but I think it underplays the scale of impact and the forced adaptions taking place right now. Millions of people are already homeless and rebuilding their lives from climate-driven disasters ... and for the most part, that rebuilding is without support of any kind. Yes, the US has experienced heat and smoke this year, and yes those things are bad, but the media's (and therfore everyone else) failure to acknowledge the sustained and cummulative impact from rolling climate catastrophes around the world is extreme ignorance. Rome is already burning.
