December 31, 2024 is going to be the date when the carbon emissions based on the Hawaii volcano model pass 425 ppm. This will mark the start of a 3 year transition period where climate disasters will change from a linear progression to an exponential progression. This period will be completed on December 31, 2027, and afterwards a five year period will begin where the exponential progression of climate disasters will start to intensify. That period will end in December 2032, which will mark the begnning of the great dying of Western civilization. The reason why this fourth turning that we're experiencing will be followed by a fifth turning instead of a first turning is because the Strauss-Howe generational model is colliding with the Limits to Growth model. As of late 2020, wild animals account for 3% of mammalian biomass on our planet, down from 4.5% in the early 2000s. The mass extinction event that we are about to experience will be the most severe extinction event to hit the planet since the Permian-Triassic extinction event. It all alludes to the overshoot and collapse phenomenon shared by every species. Our planet is designed to handle a certain anount of people biologically, and we have overshot the carrying capacity by a really big amount. This is going to result in a severe collapse in our population to less than 1 million after 2050.
