Frankly, the world as we know it is going away, soon.

68. I'm going to go on record with my predictions

Every year, from the present day right up until they are not longer able to speak, climate scientists will say, over and over, with every new measurement, "nobody expected it to happen this fast." or "This goes way beyond what any of our models predicted."

2014-2015 will see spreading food riots, and possibly "mall riots" in developed countries over rising prices of food and other essentials.

2016-2018 the planetary weather will really star falling apart in a big way. Greenland ice will begin melting at a much faster pace and some low-lying coastal communities will be abandoned due to rising sea levels.

By 2020 world population will be plummeting and economies around the world will be collapsing, if they haven't already collapsed starting in 2016. Florida will be under water.

By 2030, if the planet stabilizes at a new normal that is survivable, the remaining hunter-gatherer tribes will be scattered thinly about the remaining habitable land. If too many tipping points have been passed then by 2040-2050 at the latest, most life, and certainly all mammalian life on planet earth will be extinct.

Or, maybe not. Who knows?
