Scientists warned us in the 1950s.
NASA warned us in 1988.
Al Gore warned us in 2006.
The media and government failed to express the full magnitude of what was coming.
The public looked away.
Now it’s here and the future is no longer what most people think it is.

Immense, so, so immense, thank you!

European companies like @Syngenta sell chemicals that are already banned in Europe to other countries -- poisoning their communities and ecosystems. Here's what we can do about it: https://t.co/SbgZSaW2EK
