"The new politics swirling around net zero targets is rapidly becoming a confusing and dangerous mix of pragmatism, self-delusion and weapons-grade greenwash."
Important summary of one of the greatest threats to our future; deceptive carbon accounting.

We're today discussing a #WorldWithoutNature as if it meant that "our children won't be able to see pandas in the future" or that "we won't be able to eat certain types of food".
A world without nature is no world. Stop separating "humans" and "nature". Humans are part of nature.

Today is #WorldWildlifeDay . It should be a day of celebration, but instead we've turned it into day of sorrow.
The loss of wildlife habitat and biodiversity is still being completely ignored in every aspect of our lives and societies. twitter.com/BellaLack/stat…

"By December 2020, carbon emissions were 2% higher than in the same month the year before."
Well, well, well...
Looks like the so-called "ambitious commitments to include "green" policies in the economic recovery packages" aren't really working out...

Even if you are only 15 years old, then 30% of all global fossil fuel CO₂ emissions since 1751 have occurred in your lifetime.
This really shows the historic responsibility of our current leaders. twitter.com/neilrkaye/stat…

This report is "a red alert for our planet" says UN Secretary General @antonioguterres
As long as this doesn't dominate the news we stand no chance of reaching the targets of the Paris Agreement and thereby securing future living conditions for humanity.

This is outrageous... I hope we will receive more information on what’s happening shortly...

According to a new UN report the national targets (NDC) made so far put us on a path to achieve only a 1% reduction of greenhouse gases by 2030.
I’ll repeat that; 1%.
Our leaders are failing mankind completely. And media is letting them get away with it.

"If a company or individual says to me they are net-zero I know it is complete crap. I wish our climate leaders would say the same. Demonstrate the climate challenge, not the art of the greenwash."

Spring usually arrives in Stockholm around 20/3. 2021 it arrived on 19/2. In 2020 on 15/2.
Yesterday Sweden recorded its warmest Feb temp ever +17°C.
Now we're so used to heat records that unusually cold weather (not records) or even just normal cold weather gets more attention.

Smittan ökar och nya rekommendationer införs. Följ dem!
Det är orimligt att skolor stängs, att redan hårt pressad vårdpersonal får ytterligare ökad arbetsbörda och ännu flers liv & hälsa riskeras för att ett fåtal inte tar sitt ansvar. Undvik resor. Bär munskydd. Håll avstånd.

"If we continue on our current path we will face the collapse of everything that gives us our security/.../And if the natural world can no longer support the most basic of our needs, then much of the rest of civilisation will quickly break down."

"Recognize the moral responsibility that wealthy nations have to the rest of the world and put a value on nature that goes far beyond money/.../We may finally create a stable healthy world where resources are equally shared".

We are in a climate- and ecological emergency. What should we do?

"Industry-designed bills to silence climate protests are under consideration in Arkansas, Kansas, Minnesota and Montana. More are likely to come."
Stay strong. As outrageous as this is, it means you are winning.

Risken med otillräckliga ”fossilfria” reklamriktlinjer är ökad greenwashing. T.ex en ”DN-certifierad” gröntvätt för företag som i hög grad bidrar till den klimat- och hållbarhetskris där fossilindustrin bara är en av väldigt många bakomliggande branscher.

"Ett träd som fälls och blir biobränsle har vuxit i flera decennier, och det tar lika lång tid att få ett lika stort träd igen.

"One of the UK’s most eminent environmental scientists has called the government’s failure to block a new coalmine in Cumbria 'absolutely ridiculous'".
This is worth sharing for the picture alone!
This is exactly what approving a new coal mine looks like.theguardian.com/environment/20…
