3. A turning point for humanity?
Yes. But will it be a period of change we are relatively in control of or will most countries keep on doing nothing until catastrophic change sweeps away billions?

When the Dems take control of the House and, hopefully, the Senate, they better make some bold and significant moves toward softening this disaster as much as possible. Will they?

If not, will we see the rise of an "Environmental Protection Party"? Those of both parties with a few functioning brain cells are going to realize that many other issues must take a back seat to this issue. Will it be too late? The Democratic Party used to be the party of the environment. We need to show that this is still the case and make the Corporations toe the line. Will this happen? The destruction of the global ecosystem and the global economy will cause change. We need to plan the stabilization of all we can and try to reduce population sensibly.

Change WILL happen.
