A 🧵

#2
The Sixth Assessment Cycle #AR6 reflects an undeniable scientific consensus: we don't have time, the #ClimateEmergency is already a reality & needs to be addressed NOW, not tomorrow.

#3
#AR6 makes clear:
👉 A rapid & equitable #FossilPhaseOut, and
👉 Rollout of renewable energies alongside energy efficiency and demand-side measures
remain the clearest and most certain path to #ClimateJustice

#4
Here are 4 key takeaways to guide the #AR6 Summary for Policymakers:
1⃣ Exceeding 1.5°C warming - even temporarily - has dangerous & irreversible consequences
2⃣ People-centered #ClimateAction & a rapid #FossilPhaseOut are the most effective action required to avoid overshoot

#5
3⃣ The @IPCC_CH warns against relying on #CCS & large-scale carbon removal technologies (#CDR) like Direct Air Capture and BECCS, highlighting the uncertainties, significant financial & environmental costs, and human rights impacts associated with these false solutions

#6
4⃣ The @IPCC_CH in no uncertain terms warns against solar radiation modification (SRM) and the significant risks to people, the environment & the climate.
This is important as proponents are advocating for more research & testing:
