“We don’t just need a planet roughly the same size and temperature as Earth; we need a planet that spent billions of years evolving with us. We depend completely on the billions of organisms that make up Earth’s biosphere. Without them, we cannot survive.” https://t.co/aLiN9oCZiZ
It is the scientific consensus that hundreds of millions if not billions of people will be forced to migrate due to climate change within the next few decades. A lot of those people will end up dying. The geopolitics of a billion climate migrants. Let that fucking sink in.
No viable path left to 1.5C.
From today’s White House briefing: “Under President Biden, oil and natural gas production has increased, and we are on track to hit the highest production in our country’s history next year.”
Utterly tragic for the Earth and our future. Words fail.
Three key things EVERYONE needs to know:
1. This is still just merest beginnings of climate breakdown
2. It's irreversible, best we can do is halt it at whatever level it gets to
3. It's caused by the fossil fuel industry, which has been lying and blocking action for decades
Climate change seems to have been dropped as a priority by many decision makers around the world.
This week at #UNGA, I am calling for global #ClimateAction to reverse this trend.
We don’t have much time to turn things around.
@tathagatraj6 @DejaRu22 ?? This doesn’t even make sense. We are sad and apprehensive from being harassed on the street by strangers. Not being harassed isn’t expecting pref treatment. We do not owe u politeness bc it isn’t worth it when men take that as an invitation for harassment. Simple as that.
