  1. Climate Change is making weather events more extreme. This will impact the worlds food supply.
    Floods, droughts, fires, excessive heat, snow storms and low water levels in reservoirs and in ground water storage are becoming more common. We must stop adding more fossil fuels to the climate fire.
    India, China, Brazil, Japan, US, Europe, Indonesia, Canada, Germany and Australia need to do more to reduce use of fossil fuels. They must stop building and financing more coal fossil fuels power plants.
    Time to go all in on wind and solar energy, battery storage and electric vehicles.
    Fossil fuels are a bad investment for people and the planet.
    Investors are divesting from fossil fuels. wind and solar energy investing is growing.
    The cost of dealing with the impact of climate change will be greater than the cost of reducing the impact.
    The world population is expected to grow by another billion people. Where will the food come from ?

  2. The ever worsening climate catastrophe will continue to serve up these types of disasters in ever increasing frequency and intensity. The refugee crisis in Europe is partly due to these disasters occuring in the most vulnerable areas of the world, how long before it is Europeans themselves who are the climate refugees? Can our civilisation cope with mass internal migration on top of huge bills for the destruction caused by these disasters?
    The answer is no, collapse is the only outcome for us.

  3. And there are still people out there denying climate change! Mother Earth is taking revenge for all the devastation us humans have caused: wildfires, floods, extreme droughts, extreme heat! And no government is actively tackling the problem! Wars are destroying more and more habitat, animals are dying, native woodlands are dying and the likes of Netanyahu and Putin etc are just continuing with their slaughtering!!

  4. Dalla Libia auguro a tutti sicurezza…. Ci ricorda quello che è successo a Derna, nella Libia orientale😢

  5. kerala people are already giving boats as dowry and stopped giving cars, men aren't anyways happy with whatever car they get for FREE
