Answer:

Author Keilis Borok has written a book about the threat to civilization where she has expressed her worries about the survival of future generations.

The physical manifestations are only one aspect of the problems. Major social dislocations and instability worldwide have begun and will grow; climate refugees will increase; island nations will need to be evacuated and will disappear; fragile nation states will fail and fall into chaos.

We in the Rogue Valley are not immune to the consequences of climate change. Projections for local effects include significantly increasing average summer temperatures, major declines in snowpack and therefore water resources, increased frequency and severity of forest fires and more frequent severe weather events. Indeed, these are already happening. Given the knowledge science has given us, humanity must rapidly shift away from fossil fuels to use of renewable energy to support the world economy. We must admit the greatest market failure of all: not pricing all the costs of fossil fuel use.

World, national and local efforts to address climate change have so far been insufficient.
