We are Already Facing Consequences of Rapid Climate Change

An unfortunate and dangerous commonality persists among conversations concerning human-driven climate change. Often, the consequences of climate change are spoken of as something that will take place in the future, something that is decades from now.

While those are worthy pursuits, that naiveté is dangerous.
