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…

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.
