5C - 6C of warming is 'enough to wipe out most life on the planet'.

We're on target for 7°C.

For #ClimateJustice and a decent chance of staying under 4°C in the coming decades we need real zero in the 2020s, not net zero after 2030.

6C - 7C within decades? 👇

The planet we think we're living on no longer exists:

🔺Earth will warm 2°C to 6°C within decades

🔺It took 5,000 years to warm 5°C when global warming happened at various times in the past 2 million years

🔺predicted warming rate: 20 times faster.earthobservatory.nasa.gov/features/Globa…

"It's very possible that both ecological systems and human systems may fail to adapt rapidly enough, with devastating consequences"

How many species will survive as we rocket towards 3°C - 4°C?

'Between 1°C and 2°C...most species, ecosystems and landscapes will be impacted and adaptive capacity will become limited.'

The decline in biodiversity will accelerate.

Outside the range of evolutionary adaptive capacity? ⚠️

Pliocene-like conditions by the 2030s:

1/ Over 250 million people are experiencing 'acute hunger' or are on 'the cusp of severe hunger' now due to conflict and climate shocks as we head over 1°C.

What will happen during the unprecedented rapid warming of 2020 to 2039 with temperatures leaping to 1.5°C - 2°C?
2/
'surpassing the 1.5 °C threshold will represent a threat to global food security. For maize, risks of multiple breadbasket failures increase the most, from 6% to 40% at 1.5 to 54% at 2 °C warming.'

Climate catastrophe began decades ago for 100s of millions of people.

'Climate shocks and conflict will continue driving food insecurity...'

Over 250 million are already experiencing 'acute hunger' or are on 'the cusp of severe hunger'.

Dear Ms Scheewe,
You are one of the few who noticed & RT'ed above article. May I request your (& your followers') attention for the following articles which contain more info on the true/main causes of #ClimateChange. We should be (re)thinking effective #ClimateAction.
✌
@LiekeScheewe @MazMHussain 2+
Here are 3 articles that describe how the military industrial complex & warfare are the MAIN cause for #ClimateChange. Unfortunately this subject is ignored by MSM. #War destroys ALL #Life on earth!

Taken into consideration that #warfare, #aviation & #shipping industries are excluded from the @UNFCCC while these are the 3 BIGGEST causes of #ClimateChange, should make a sensible person think on what effective #ClimateAction should be.

The attacks were a coordinated set of events planned on getting ahead of the narrative, and getting some movement that will let the left gain traction ahead of the vote next year. It is nothing less than another means by which [they] legitimize the planned theft of next year's
election. According to the drama rep, the plan the bloodlines had is a year and a half type of plan. The cabal does think it will win next year with all the irons in the fire they have. [They] plan to use their sweeping win to take control, take away guns and freedoms in advance
of the worst of the nature (which they are using the global warming lie to get ahead of), then we are safely prisoners of a newly socialist country. The drama rep repeated again that the plan the cabal has is deeply flawed and will not succeed. Between now and the election,
