I want you to look at the two graphs below.
The first one shows global temperatures in every August as recorded from 1850 through 2024.
The second graph shows temperature anomalies over the past 1000 years, which means amount of deviation from average, in this case taking 1951 to 1980 as a baseline.

But that's what capitalists will say. And that's what apologists for capitalism will tell you.
There's no reason for alarm, they assure us, no need to panic. Just stay calm, and trust that our leaders have the situation under control.

We often read that #SciFi predicts the future.
The reality is: This is more often false than true.
There are exceptions, of course: “The Space Merchants” (1952) by Frederik Pohl and Cyril M. Kornbluth is, despite its humorous tone, almost too painful to read in its accurate description of capitalism’s present and likely future.
