It's definitely gonna suck for me here in the US, but I'm really not convinced it's going to make a huge impact worldwide. There will be some instability as the power vacuum gets filled, probably in large part by china. But that means the rest of the world is just trading one authoritarian, hegemonic neighbor for another.
I guess the process probably will exacerbate climate change faster than otherwise, and that'll definitely impact the world in a number of huge ways, but that's already happening.
