“This climate law is surrender - because nature doesn’t bargain and you cannot make ”deals” with physics.
And we will not allow you to surrender on our future.”

Dust storms, whistling wind, smog season, burning heat. Gurgaon, a city being destroyed by the people who live in it.
Don't let this happen. Fight for better.

Destruction of Trees:

-killed by deforestation
-killed by abrupt climate change
-killed by industrial agriculture
-killed by road building
-killed by mining
-killed by new diseases
-killed by water & air pollution

The murder of ancient forests by capitalism is nearly complete.

Within decades 'the amount of carbon released by the land could be equivalent to 14 years of current human-caused emissions...These emissions would increase atmospheric carbon dioxide by 66 parts per million (ppm).'

What?

Half a trillion tonnes?

If we ignore the reality of feedbacks not properly acknowledged by the IPCC (permafrost, soil, forest, Arctic sea-ice loss, vegetation etc), forget we're already at ~1.3°C using the 1750 baseline, ignore the science that says slashing emissions will make things worse because of

#Mumbai has had a lackadaisical attitude towards #AirPollution , believing that sea breezes will sweep away the murk, but a CSE study has shown that the city needs more than the sea to clean up its air.
