We haven't reached the tipping point. I've just read "The tipping Point", can you tell?

Seriously, I'm convinced it will happen, because it has to happen. I hope it will happen before it has to, because then we have a chance of "controlling" the situation, or at least adapting to it without too much upheaval. In the meantime I think every step in the right direction is a step towards the tipping point, whether it's a small personal step or a big step involving many people.

And there's no doubt that it will cost, in terms of unpopular and difficult decisions. But we are supremely adaptable as a species.

And if you all think this sounds like a lot of hot air, it's because I don't know anything about the specifics of the situation you're discussing so I'm theorizing freely
