1. Yes a matter of time, which is not that far off based on the warming of the poles. The effects of these climatic and celestial events present with greater extremes.  And we will live with the consequences. It would behoof us to minimize the contribution of CO2 etc. But Humanity is clearly challenged by inertia and enough people in denial of basic scientific consensus on the causes of climatic change. So far.
