We’ve already emitted 89% of the CO2 budget that gives us a 66% chance of staying below 1,5°C. That’s why historic emissions not only count - they nearly make up the entire climate crisis. And yet they’re still being almost completely ignored by media and people in power. twitter.com/CarbonBrief/st…

“We need to step up our game” all our leaders keep saying.
Well then, please go ahead!
You don’t need UN summits, treaties or ”deals” to start lowering emissions.
Nor do you need to wait for anyone else.
You can start right this second!
No-one is stopping you.

"Of course I don’t see the world in black and white. It’s just that when it comes to the climate and environment, you can’t be a little bit sustainable. Either you are sustainable or you are unsustainable."

Att stå upp för alla människors lika värde är inte att hata eller att polarisera. Att stå upp mot dem som motarbetar alla människors lika värde är inte att hata eller polarisera. Vägra normalisera det som händer nu i Sverige. Vägra normalisera hat, hot, lögner och fascism.

Every year we measure higher and higher levels of CO2, since our emissions are cumulative and stay in the atmosphere for up to 1000 years.
Here is a reminder where they come from: twitter.com/CarbonBrief/st…

Today, so many (especially girls) remain undiagnosed. The reasons for that are often lack of awareness, prejudices and the fact that many still see autism as a “disease” or something that has to hold you back. 2/7

School strike week 181 in Jokkmokk to protest against the proposed mine in Gállok. This mine would be devastating for climate, environment and indigenous rights. Sweden must end the colonisation of Sápmi!

"On current trends, the probability of staying below 2°C of warming is only 5%, but if all countries meet their nationally determined contributions and continue to reduce emissions at the same rate after 2030, it rises to 26%"
As if a 26% chance was good.

This is the place we call “normal”. But ”normal” was also a crisis, and it’s no place to return to after the pandemic. It’s a place we must leave to safeguard future living conditions. We must start to move towards a zero carbon society while leaving no one behind in the process.

"Most major news outlets still present climate change as no more important than a dozen other public issues, when the fact is that if the world doesn’t get it under control, fast, climate change will overwhelm every other issue."
