Climate : Time to get a grip
This link was posted to the fediverse. An very hard hitting article on the ITV news website, spelling out the reality of climate change and the damage we are doing to our planet as humans. You can read the article here.
I think when 11,000 scientists are all saying the same thing it is time we woke up and listened.
The fediverse seems to be about the only place that we can hold sensible, science and evidence based discussions. People are actually LEAVING mainstream social media, joining the fediverse to discuss as they feel safer and are not being subjected to the abuse they face on mainstream social media.

Climate change – more extreme weather on the way.
The climate is changing and fast, it seems much faster than we had predicted. This weekend will see RECORD European heat.
Recent BBC articles on various serious issues. Heat over 40c has proven deadly to humans, it can destroy crops, water systems etc.
We still want to mine deep see minerals,. warnings about this ignored, and due to people not making agreements deadlines pass to stop this happening. We don't need to mine for new tech, we don't need new phones ever year, we need to consume less, recycle more and change the way we live our lives to more sustainable models. The fact the ocean floor is teaming with unstudied life, means if we start mining, we will most likely destroy this fragile ecosystem and wipe out species we don't even know about.
While at the same time there are still posts denying all these problems spreading on some social media platforms.
If you want to have proper discussions on all this I suggest you join a Fediverse instance such as qoto mastodon or Science Forums.
I have since added another link to an article about land temperatures hitting 60 degrees C.
