“You have stolen my dreams and my childhood with your empty words, and yet I am one of the lucky ones,” she said at the summit. “People are suffering. People are dying. Entire ecosystems are collapsing."

Yes. Everywhere I travel now as a retired person there are ecosystems collapsing or faltering. You can see it almost everywhere. In some ways the least amount of change is around the U.S. and Europe where more civilization is, because further north entire ecosystems are collapsing and islands in the Pacific are going underwater for the last time right now or already have. Many people's lives for hundreds of years are gone under the waves already never to return.
Accepting that everyone's lives are going to change a lot now is important if you and your family want to survive what is to come next. Billions of people won't make it now who are too poor to move away to save themselves worldwide already this century by 2100.
Even among the middle class and rich many children and elderly will die far before their time simply because they cannot adapt fast enough to survive what is coming now this century and after.
