Although stark, Guterres\u2019 statements were not novel. Guterres has made similar remarks on previous occasions, as have other public figures, including Sir David Attenborough, who warned in 2018 that inaction on climate change could lead to \u201cthe collapse of our civilizations\u201d (2). In their article, \u201cWorld Scientists\u2019 Warning of a Climate Emergency 2021\u201d\u2014which now has more than 14,700 signatories from 158 countries\u2014William J.

Yet despite discussing many adverse impacts, climate science literature, as synthesized for instance by assessment reports of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), has little at all to say about whether or under which conditions climate change might threaten civilization. </span></p></div></div>
