A new U.N. climate report offers both a warning and hope. “We know what to do, we know how to do it, and now it’s up to us to take action.”

The looming climate crisis “is horrifying, and I don’t want to sugarcoat that,” says Bronson Griscom, a forest ecologist and the director of Natural Climate Solutions at the environmental organization Conservation International, based in Arlington, Va.

Consider the transportation sector, which contributed 15 percent of human-related greenhouse gas emissions in 2019. Globally, If that surge continues, “electric vehicles offer us the greatest potential [to reduce transportation emissions on land], as long as they’re combined with low or zero carbon electricity sources,” Inger Andersen, the executive director of the United Nations Environment Programme, said at the news event.

The UN can do alot more than my ass

Climate change is very important we’ve been entrusted with the land and its waters and its oceans and its fish and its wildlife and it Forest let’s do something about it

Julesofthwood Nonsense.

Climate and Covid fraud Real Climate Change

Who cares, it’s getting close to BBQ season, so spark up those ovens and throw on the meat, don’t forget the firepits and chimneas and a few gins… live for today folks and stick 2 fingers up to that brat Greta 😂🤣😂🤣👍🏻👍🏻

I agree, but the efforts need to include reducing & compensating for mankind's aquatic thermal contribution, which is also contaminating the oceans & triggering the polar decline, as well as, increasing storm size & strength beyond the effects of CO2'S.

Oh, and there is no 'we'. Humanity doesn't function as a community. It will take a massive human extinction event for such thing to happen or maybe not even that. Sorry. Sad but true.

Billionaires plan to buy other planets and do some terraforming before they have to abandon Earth.

And yet, Google refuses to do business with the scientist that showed the earth's temperature isn't changing as rapidly as their narrative. Can we please do REAL SCIENCE? Thanks.

Nah, nah, let's go the other way. Speed up climate change!

I have looked into the current solutions that are being applied here is Canada solar and wind and they are a net deficit on carbon reduction when you include their reduced lifespan, capture ability, cost and carbon inherent in their structure. disposal ?

7.9 billion people add 2.5 lbs CO2 daily breathing up from 1 billion 200 years ago. All the solar panels and windmills won't stop that. Add additional pets, wild animals and food animals proves fossil fuels are insignificant contributors. UN report based on bad assumptions.

CARBON CAPTURE: (IPCC REPORT) The key message that slips between mental cracks... ***Carbon capture systems required.*** (Which we already know cannot scale ())

Great epitaph.

The Sun bombards the Earth with enough energy in one day to meet all of humanities needs for one year . Stop looking underground and start looking up .
