The game took the players from the year 2020 to 2030. As it was projected, the decade brought two major food crises, with prices approaching 400 percent of the long term average; a raft of climate-related extreme weather events; governments toppling in Pakistan and Ukraine
In the face of a steep price spike with looming global food shortages in 2022, the EU at one point suspended its environmental rules for agriculture and introduced a tax on meat. Both measures were quickly reversed in 2025, as harvests went back to normal and tensions eased in the hypothetical universe.
The most eye-catching result, however, was a deal between the U.S., the EU, India and China, standing in for the top 20 greenhouse gas emitters, to institute a global carbon tax and cap CO2 emissions in 2030.
No idea.

I ponder what happens in 2030 that makes it necessary to manufacture havoc on the planet.
Sure, climate change is a snug fit, I trust that the cause is being obfuscated. The universe isn’t driven by the forces we are told it is and the Earth has cycles, some more catastrophic then others, we are not taught about.
I reckon the environment the solar system is moving through is affecting our sun and celestial neighbours and we are witnessing our planets reaction.
My two cents.
