We need way stricter laws and enough participant countries, and I'm sure it will happen. Things have already been accelerating these last 20 years, and it's taken dried out rivers in Europe and a high frequency of devastating hurricanes and wildfires in America and Australia to get things started. It will require even worse summers that drag out and eliminate spring and autumn for humanity to really be dead serious, but it will happen.

Sure, we may prevent the absolute worst case apocalypse scenario, but there will already be billions suffering horribly by the time it gets to that point
