Remember:

1. Droughts will be twice as severe
2. Desertification will hit 70% of soil
3. Food pollinators will go extinct
4. Crop-destroying pests will thrive
5. Unsurvivable heatwaves will start
6. Water crises will explode
7. Crops needed for survival will fail

All by 2030.
Droughts which are more than twice as severe as those between 1990-2005 are set to threaten global food security by as early as 2022 - 2027.

Desertification:

"If we cannot find a solution to this problem ... in 2025, close to 70 percent [of the planet's soil] could be affected".

Pollinator Extinction has already begun:

Many bumblebees are 'experiencing severe die-offs, some as much as 96% of their population. At least one North American species is presumed extinct'.

The IUCN lists several bees as critically endangered.
