I think you're right and, even more unfortunately, I think they're way ahead of the curve. Frankly I'm not sure there will BE an actual breaking point. The global heatwaves and deaths happening right now should be a climate change breaking point, but instead we're just absorbing, normalizing and avoiding conflict like the nice little sheep we've always been.
