It's bumpy already. The United Nation's emergency relief coordinator, Sir John Holmes, calls this year's tally of climate related emergencies a "mega disaster." His office is responsible for channeling international funds to help countries with emergency relief for things like earthquakes, floods, etc.

Sir John suggests the planet is well into the first lines of its Dear John letter. Self-destructive creatures that we are, humans have opted to break up with millenia of relative climate stability and have hit the sack with the unpredictable, fiesty Climactica Changeus. Floods, droughts, mega hurricanes--WAY more orgasmic than the same old predictable seasons.
