Whelp. North Ireland was Brexited while Ireland is still EU, and that remains still a vector of EU influence on GB (and smuggling goods into EU) so either the borders close and the troubles start all over again or the Irelands reunify.
From the lack of news, I’ve assumed everyone not near the border has been choosing to not look at it too hard.
Yes. Nuclear winter trades global warming for a tuckfun of even bigger problems.
Volcanic winter is such a pain in the butt, I call shenanigans on the many-years winters allegedly in Westros, which would force them to migrate (or have decades of grain stores, which they totally don’t). With modern freight, volcanic winter is less of a problem for industrialized nations, but we still feel it.
Remember that the star trek era was preceded by a nuclear ww3, and the eugenics wars. We still seem to be on track.
How did we fix the climate crisis and the plastic crisis in Star Trek?
I bet it’s tech developed by environmental conservation labs in the not-defunct Soviet Union.
Well we’re do for the Bell Riots and Irish Reunification this year!

Plastic crisis looks to be possible to fix with bacteria. How disruptive those bacteria end up being is another matter.
Nuclear winter in the wake of the Eugenics Wars. Cooled us right down. Even in Star Trek, our immediate future is… bleak.
