"Even short-term exposure to Ozone is dangerous for those with respiratory conditions... Ozone can be controlled only if gases from all sources are controlled."

Whether or not it was intended for India alone, we must take the warning seriously. The earth's temperature is rising too fast for this to be a reasonable solution for #AatmaNirbharBharatAbhiyan.

Expansion of algal broom represents a growing threat to fisheries and lakhs of members of coastal communities in India, according to experts. Yet another sign of the devastating impacts of Earth's rising temperatures due to #carbonemissions.

What do #heatwaves in the #ArcticCircle have to do with #climatechange? Rise in Earth's temperature is making them stronger and the average summer temp is rising. To keep the temp under control, we must bring our #carbonemissions to zero.

Climate destruction and emissions are also an issue of class and reinforce the urban rural divide. What actions do you think the govt. must take to bridge these differences? Tweet to us with #ZeroSeHero
A study by scientists from Australia, Switzerland and the UK published in the journal Nature Communications, just concluded that the "most fundamental driver of environmental destruction" is the overconsumption of the super-rich :(

World Food Prize, 2020 Winning Scientist Prof. Ratan Lal says, "Health of the soil, plants, animals, environment and the humans are interconnected. If the soil health deteriorates, so does ours."

"Warming in the Arctic is leading to thawing of once permanently frozen permafrost, which will release carbon dioxide and methane previously locked up."
Imagine being trapped in this cycle. Evidence so far suggests we need to do much more to stop it.

Temperatures in the Arctic Circle appear to have reached a record high over the weekend.
Our planet is sending us a clear warning. The need for immediate and ambitious #ClimateAction is more urgent than ever.
”These outbreaks are manifestations of our dangerously unbalanced relationship with nature”.
Pandemics like COVID 19 are a result from destruction of nature according to UN and WHO. https://t.co/17vEJYO6t5
Another shining example how #AatmanirbharBharat is headed for anything but independence. Losing #carbonsinks will cost us. Heavily. Mangrove deforestation already did when #AmphanSuperCyclone hit! Why aren’t we drawing the connect, @moefcc?
According to the government data and the Vision 2030 record of Coal India Limited, CIL and
currently allocated mines are already capable of supplying India's coal needs for next 10 years.

What should have been a learning opportunity for #climateaction, seems to have had an opposite impact, as people ditch public transport for the safety of their cars :(

Or ketchup sachets. Or aataa, rice, basic pulses. Liquid soaps. The list is endless tbh and the gigantic #carbonfootprint is something we could all do without. #ZeroSeHero
My whole career is feuled by chai and Parle-G since theater days.. Can you imagine how much less single use plastic waste there will be if just Parle-G changed its packing to an alternate biodegradable material? Now the sales are up let’s see the contribution to a better Tom too
#Periodपाठ 25: On #WorldOceanDay, a quick reminder that over a billion of non-compostable sanitary pads are making their way into sewerage systems, landfills, fields and water bodies in India every month. #MenstruationMatters [thread]
India's 7K+ kms of coastlines are facing threats from #cyclones, #flooding, depleting fisheries stock, and more. #CycloneAmphan and #CycloneNisarga aren't the last of the disasters we'll see unless we bring emissions to zero and control the rise in ocean temperature. #ZeroSeHero
Amphan cyclone and the locust attacks are grim reminders of the neglect and damage done to Indian Ocean https://t.co/jjpRqjHBC8 #WorldOceanDay#CycloneAmphan#Locustsattack
