At this point, I don't see how we're not going to have a world war. There's too much teetering on the edge, too many critical resources we're fighting over, and too much money being pumped into every major country's defense budgets. The status quo for politicians and CEOs is to blatantly ignore reality. As the climate crisis gets worse, resources are only going to get more scarce.
Well, considering the animal nature of man and his psyche, a world war and a shortage of resources is not if but when, and this when is getting closer.
