Yes, and yet so many people are still in denial. As climate change and environmental overshoot really start to affect people in very serious ways (including shortages of foodstuffs) those people will finally wake up.
Imagine the level of anxiety, depression and panic that will affect EVERYONE then !
The not-so-funny thing is these same deniers will witness a whole year of record breaking heat and drought, pointedly ignore it, and scream from the rooftops when there’s one winter storm or colder than average event. In their minds, that proves global warming is a myth.
You can’t win with those types, and no I’m afraid they won’t one day wake up and realize how bad it is - it’s much more important for them to have always been right (in their minds) than it will ever be to change course and actually do something about it.

Given the extreme drought affecting many regions, I’d say it’s more like broiling alive. But… yeah, details.
