You cannot build peace on a burning planet. You cannot eradicate poverty when climate disasters keep throwing people back into it. You cannot promise young people a better future while destroying the natural systems on which that future depends. #climateChange #climateCatastrophe #climateEmergency #climateBreakdown #tippingPoint

Under current policies, the planet will heat up by 2.7C on average by the end of the century compared with preindustrial times, the report by Climate Action Tracker (CAT) found. This is up slightly from a prediction of 2.6C in the group’s analysis conducted last year. #climateChange #climateCatastrophe #climateEmergency #climateBreakdown #tippingPoint

An article about 7 out of 9 of earth's stabilising systems being heavily damaged and endangered is somewhere far, far down on a news site. How is "we're fucking up this habitat of ours so badly that it'll likely collapse" not headlines? #News #ClimateCatastrophe #ClimateCrisis #Biodiversity

Asian governments are rushing preparations for the most severe El Niño weather event on record, with hundreds of millions of people bracing for multiple crises at once as extreme heat, heavy rain and food shortages hit the region. #climateChange #climateCatastrophe #climateEmergency #climateBreakdown #tippingPoint

The International Court of Justice has made it clear – keeping to 1.5C is not a choice, it is a legal obligation. We are not asking for your goodwill. We are not begging you. We are telling you what international law requires of you. End fossil fuel expansion. Your corporate profits cannot be allowed to extinguish our future. #climateChange #climateCatastrophe #climateEmergency #climateBreakdown #tippingPoint

Acne Flares May be Worsened by Climate Change While potentially protective, Boos and colleagues noted that cutaneous bacteria may be more vulnerable to higher effective UV radiation doses at increased temperatures, which are direct consequences of the changing climate. https://www.dermatologytimes.com/view/acne-flares-may-be-worsened-by-climate-change #ClimateEmergency #pollution #environment #ecology #ClimateCrisis #ClimateCatastrophe #CllimateChange #dermatology

A small chorus of right-leaning critics are trying to convince politicians that climate action is deeply unpopular, downplaying its seriousness in the process. They accept the reality of human-made climate change, but believe the impact of it won’t be as big as people argue, and that policies involved in mitigating these impacts will be expensive and difficult. #climateChange #climateCatastrophe #climateEmergency #climateBreakdown #tippingPoint

The terrifying scenes we’ve seen so far this summer are the latest part of a pernicious long-term pattern. Across the world, the past 11 years have been the 11 hottest ever recorded – and with a super strength El Niño forming in the Pacific which could pour yet more fuel on the fire, that trend is all but certain to continue. The climate emergency is here – and no one can say they didn’t see it coming. #climateChange #climateCatastrophe #climateEmergency #climateBreakdown #tippingPoint

Heat will once again build across the UK this weekend before the fifth widespread heatwave of the year is likely to be declared next week. From Sunday and into next week, temperatures could exceed 30C in south-east England. Yellow heat health alerts have been issued for most of England until Tuesday, warning of impacts for health and social care services and an increased risk to life for vulnerable people. https://www.bbc.com/weather/articles/cgr7d28vvpno #UK #globalHeating #ClimateCatastrophe #ClimateChange #weather #Environment #DoSomething
