Here's a thing I tried and just kind of insinuate it into the public consciousness.

I nearly said inseminate.

I pulled back at the last minute.

You can make sense of that.

You have to inseminate.

We have to impregnate the idea of the climate into the public consciousness.

That's not off base.

Yes, I was both disseminating and insinuating.

It nearly went really badly wrong.

Yes, absolutely.

So the report was commissioned by the Joint Intelligence Committee.

Well, not commissioned, it was produced by them.

So that's the heads of MI5 and MI6.

And they're basically going, let's look into how much of a threat this is, how much of a global security threat the climate crisis is.

I think they were specifically looking at the collapse of certain key areas of biodiversity.

The potential cascade effect are things like there will likely be a global food shortage.

That will increase migration.

That will increase the slide into fascism that we're already seeing.

Resource scarcity scares people.

There will be more risk of further pandemics.
