The Postdam Institute's 9 planetary boundaries, Humans have crossed 7.
A single crossing would already represent an existential risk.
On a personal note. Tp4 is surrounded by the Uber Rich. What does that mean.. Best technical description by the Tp4, If your house has 20x AC heat exchangers, that's what rich is. 4 and below, you're upper middle class.
Point is, there is so much momentum in the system, the average Uber-Riche is so metabolically crippled, alcohol+cholesterol, their brain is plainly not working right. They are not bad people, Tp4 has met exactly 1 person out of 100 which could be classified as "Bad." But they're all stuck in the doom loop.
There is <1% probability in the powerful/wealthy circle to care or even NOTICE that the world is falling apart.
Tp4 witnessed most recently for the first time, someone spending the maximum $500,000 on a single credit card swipe. Paying the rest of the difference in gold bars. Because heck, gotta have it today.
