30 years ago today the Rio #EarthSummit started on 3 June 1992. 154 nations pledged there to stabilise greenhouse gas concentrations to prevent a dangerous climate change, in the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change. A thread🧵. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Na…

I remember watching the news of the UNFCCC signing very well. I thought: *finally* they are doing something to stop #GlobalWarming, a looming crisis we have known about since at least the first official government report of 1965! project-syndicate.org/commentary/cli…
Previously, I linked #BuildBackBetter & the #GreatReset to the #MauriceStrong network (mid-1970s but kicking off with the 1992 UN #EarthSummit in Rio). I also linked Strong to the #Rockefeller clan. We may have to go a bit further back in time.
