This is a very long process, and a world War would be the last straw for climate. If it has a similar time line as ww2, then even if 2024 is equivalent to 1932 or such, that would mean an end to the war around 2040 or 2050, so another 20 years of hyper emissions and ecological horrors resulting from the war machines, before there would be a chance for coordinated global action on climate so, again, the damage would be beyond devastating and possibly completely destabilizing for surviving nations, global socialist alliance or not
Ignore me I'm just dooooomin
That seems highly optimistic
In fact it sounds exactly like the way people were talking in 1914
I think the destabilization is already baked in at this point, the question is which class will have the political agency do decide how the misery is distributed
