For our descendants, we must not just revise but totally change our maps, starting with this video.
We must face that we will never again have our civilization cake/map and escape massive climate change sacrifice and suffering, too.
We must adapt or our descendants will curse us and die.
To shorten (not lessen) the pain, you can start at 16:21, because yes, we really are on the civilization Titanic vertically sinking right. now.
If you have other things to do, background audio is good enough, but the video's length shows the breadth and depth of our inertia map.
If you have arguments as you watch, go back to 0:00, where human rationalized inertia -- agreements, treaties, decrees, comparisons, blame, timelines, killing off all Big Fossil polluters -- is shown to be worth not a damn thing in Reality.
As we have dealt with covid across the planet, so we will deal with climate destruction.
The value of this is that it provides every single framing of what we need to drop, take with us, and work with as we Earthlings try to stop all of life's mass death.

It's hard to take, but if we can't think about it before disasters hit, we'll be useless when they do.
