Did you know? 1. Global crop failures hit at 1.5- 2°C. 2. Billions die at 3°C. 3. Most humans dead at 4°C. 4. Earth uninhabitable at 6°C. 5. We're heading for 1.5°C by 2025. 6. We're heading for 2°C by 2035. 7. We're heading for 4- 6°C by 2075. Why isn't this front page news?

There is no collective action without individuals choosing to contribute to it. There is no cultural shift without individuals leading the way. There is no bright line between systems change and individuals acting according to their principles. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

OK, so let's talk about panic. I DO want you to panic. Because then you'll finally realize we're in a #ClimateEmergency. Panic is a useful and appropriate INITIAL response to an emergency. Upon realizing climate truth, you will panic and grieve - and then get to real work. twitter.com/martine_maron/…

There's a huge misunderstand as to why climate activists are now calling for radical action to address the climate and ecological emergency. Wrongly it is being assumed that they just want radical change to our societies, when in fact it is the only way to avert disaster.

1) If you take the 1992 Rio Earth Summit as a datum point, where all the world's countries and leaders essentially agreed to address the climate and ecological crisis, we can understand the situation.

2) 28 year ago we had two choices. a) To gradually reduce carbon emissions and slowly transition to a sustainable society. b) To wait, and then take far more radical action in the future i.e. now.

3) Governments and big business procrastinated, and put off taking action until well into the future. Well we're in this future now. It was their choice to do it this way, not environmentalists who were quite happy to have gradual change.

4) The problem is that governments and business is now talking about implementing the gradual change, which they should have started implementing 25 year or more ago. But it is too late for this now, and they only have themselves to blame.
