I think there's much more to it than just climate change.
It's a whole host of issues caused by humans.
For one, we're over-fishing the oceans and putting massive strain on the ocean ecosystem. Mix that with polluting the oceans and rivers.
Mix that, with massively transforming the landscape around the world. Building roads/cities, damning rivers, and chopping down vast areas of the rain forest. Disrupting natural animal migration patterns. Leading to a mass extinction event.
Plus on top of all of that, climate change. The world can only take so much abuse. Yet, we seem hell bent on pushing that as far as we possibly can. Very dangerous game to play in my opinion. By hey, the economy.
