The UN's climate change body (IPCC) has made it clear: our carbon dioxide budget is in a critical phase. According to the SR15 report (Appendix 2, page 108), we can only emit a limited amount of CO₂ to keep global warming below 1.5°C.
The Reality: Earth's resources are overloaded by 170% – while the planet can only regenerate 100%. Until this balance is restored, we are heading toward global ecological collapse. This is not a scenario or a possibility – it is the current science-based reality.
The Basic Facts:
This is not a matter of opinion, politics, or debate. This is the best available science, accepted by most of the world's governments. The Paris Agreement and IPCC reports are based on the current best scientific consensus.
The Choice Is Simple: Either we stand with the scientists, understand the Paris Agreement, and act – or we don't. The former offers the possibility of a livable future. The latter means the sad fate of our global civilization, community, and family.
In this case, there is no middle ground. There is no compromise halfway to catastrophe.
