Mass extinctions happening now.
Australia used to have trees that aren't black, and Koalas.
Ice melting, and permafrost thawing.
65 degrees in Antarctica a couple days ago.
Floods, Fires, Hurricanes, Droughts.

100 trillion in worldwide debt.

Carbon and methane being pumped into the atmosphere like it doesn't matter.
