There's a 1994 book by John Barnes, Mother of Storms, where the Arctic methane traps were released, creating a worldwide permanent hurricane. There's no solution. Also there's simsense & it's heavily used by psychopaths.
John's books range from fun & kinda mean, to incredibly dark & very mean, and this is on the far dark end.
@mdhughes I'm pretty sure we are living out _Kaleidoscope Century_ at this point
