What are the worst outcomes of climate change if nothing changes?

Climate change mitigations have started, we have been working towards them for over 20 years. The reports from the worlds scientific body say that there are severe outcomes if we don’t change current practices. Climate change will get worse before it gets better. However, the people most qualified to help guide scientist, and in turn the world, are the indigenous peoples, who have survived multiple ice ages in isolation, who’s song lines and ancient histories and deeply connected cultures treat the earth as a sacred sentient being that is to be treated respectfully and with honour.

The turning point for climate change is when ‘white’ colonial society see’s the earth not as a resource, instead these so-called civilisations need to have a treaty with the people who are the guardians of the planet. When we cease to treat the earth as a resource, when we recognise humans as people and not consumers, when we see that corporations are not sentient entities - then we will begin to win the climate mitigation battle at a pace conducive to healing mother earth by slowing the effects of western human anthropocentric induced climate change.

The fact that entire pacific nations will disappear, that the artic ice cap will disappear which is a staggering issue as new sea shipping lanes are created, new international boundaries are created and the changes in endemic migrations, nurseries, and spawning grounds. One of the most high-profile examples of climate migration is the creation of the grizzly-polar bear hybrid, as the ice shrink and drives polar bears south and the warming waters means grizzlies head further north as salmon now spawn in rivers that were previously inaccessible, the result is the two bear species meeting and procreating. Things are changing, is it fast enough for mitigation to occur, I’m not sure, but at least now there are changes and humanity are agreed that a real pathway needs to be locked in.
