The 4th turning won't end until 2029.
Unless we deal strongly with climate change before then, the fourth turning will never end.
Climate change is a baby alligator now. It will grow into a monster.
Contrasting what the world can be in 80 years, climate change so far is a baby alligator. Any dog can likely overpower and devout a baby alligator. When the alligator is fully grown it will literally take a dog off what is the top of the food chain... as a meal. In Michigan the dog is the top of the food chain. In Florida, the alligator is. Alligators in Lake Erie or the Hudson? God help us!
I can already predict what will be the real cause of the Crisis of 2100: global warming. How severe the Crisis will be will depend upon how severe it is. Prime farming areas will be inundated or desertified, which will cause the dislocation of hundreds of millions of people. Tropical diseases will start appearing in places like Chicago, London, and Tokyo which now consider themselves exempt.
Millennials are now the biggest market for housing, vehicles, appliances, furniture, and (once COVID is over) vacation travel. It won't be long before some of them have college-age kids. (Those are current teenagers of the next, likely Adaptive-Artist generation. As time passes, watch the sparks fly. Businesses will need to adapt; so will politicians. Those pols who can't adapt will find themselves losing elections.
I have pointed out many times before here that the global warming crisis is our crisis in this 4T. It will not be the Crisis of 2100. We deal with it now, or we fail to deal with it. It is the monster now. We deal with it NOW, or this 4T will never end.
People need to be more informed about global warming. Noone informed says that the climate crisis is in the future. It is now. We take the needed measures to reverse it in this decade, or we lose our civilization.
