The post Consequences of Climate Change at our Faith in a Changing Climate substack site explores how the effects of climate change are complex, uneven, and intensifying over time.

The post reviews three influential works that frame our understanding of what lies ahead.

• David Wallace-Wells’ The Uninhabitable Earth warns that scientific uncertainty should not obscure the mounting evidence of catastrophic outcomes, though his book presents them in a disjointed fashion.
• Mark Lynas’ Six Degrees organizes the crisis by degrees of temperature rise, each step revealing increasingly dire consequences—from wildfires and floods to food shortages and mass extinction.
• Jem Bendell’s Deep Adaptation goes further, arguing that near-term societal collapse is inevitable and urging a moral response through resilience, relinquishment, and restoration.

The post concludes with sobering statistics from a 2025 conference, underscoring accelerating sea level rise, extinction rates, pollution, and overconsumption. Together, these sources paint a picture not of a single event, but of an unfolding, global decline demanding acceptance and adaptation.
