Hey all. Starting to use this account to further speak out against the erosion of human rights though my focus is and always will be the protection of our biosphere and prevention of climate breakdown. For all of those interconntected topics there is a clear need to act. /1
Overconsumption of nature's resources within our current growth-based economic system is driving the destruction of the very planet we are living on. If some dream of settling in space, be aware that this is also a form of migration and just as now only possible for the rich. /2
Even democratic systems are currently unwilling or unable to pass legislation which prevents the destruction of our planet's ecosystems and climate. It's up to civil society to protest this inaction and effectively put pressure on those in power. /3
Responsibility lies with those who cause the global ecological catastrophes and if you are in the fortunate situation of being able to use your priviledges I urge you to do so as the next years will be crucial to turn around the trends of biodiversity loss and global heating. /4
Worsening environmental conditions directly affect humans around the globe already now, starting with those already facing harsh socio-economic conditions and in the future this will likely intensify the erosion of human rights as laid out by the UN theguardian.com/environment/20…. /5
