There are two things that I can foresee that humans are not ready for that are coming to everyone around the world. The most unuversal of these is higher and higher intensity winds of all kinds in storms both in wind storms, rain storms, tornatdoes and hurricanes etc.
The second thing that is changing the coastlines of all nations near the interconnected oceans of the world is sea level rise .The most pressing of these to me is on the Pacific Islands when you go to a resort in places like Hawaii where palm trees are dying that are too close to the ocean now all over the place because they cannot take too much sea water and stay alive. So, you are beginning to see dead coastal palm trees all over the coasts of the Hawaiian islands now. But, this same thing is likely happening to palm trees all over the world near the ocean.
But, the winds are actually going to affect people more because there is enough land above sea level in the world so humans can survive sea level rise for the most part.
However, the winds blowing down trees and plants we grow to eat is more problematic for human survival to the point where food might need to be grown in some areas underground or in protected Greenhouses so the plants are not all blown away or at least the leaves of the plants aren't blown away this century.
