A disruption in the supply of light beer and blue jeans, probably.
People don't often react until whatever the problem is effects them personally, sadly.
Though for a problem like climate change, it wouldn't be a lack of beer and jeans that will plague people...think more like disease pandemics, super storms, cities underwater, crop dieoffs. You know, the usual...

"Man, I see in fight club the strongest and smartest men who've ever lived. I see all this potential, and I see squandering. God damn it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables; slaves with white collars. Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy **** we don't need. We're the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War's a spiritual war... our Great Depression is our lives. We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact. And we're very, very pissed off." - Tyler Durden
