Thirty years from now and the effects of climate change are overwhelming the planet – but so are the global efforts to combat it.

For young Americans a generation from now, climate change isn’t controversial, it’s a fact of life.

But there are still those Americans who cling to their red trucker caps, their anger, their nostalgia for the golden age of assault rifles. Their ‘alternative’ news sources reassure them their resentment is right and pure and ‘climate change’ is a con.

They’re your grandfather, your uncle, your great-aunt. They’re not going anywhere. And they’re armed to the teeth.
