The Climate Crisis Post 12

We are not worth more than the people who die from the climate crisis now and in the future. Just because we are privileged enough to have been born outside the zones that are hit hardest now does not give us the right to create a climate crisis, but rather a duty to clean up after ourselves. We have to fight against the greenwashing and make sure that the facts actually get on the table.

The Climate Crisis Post 11

Last climate crisis post before Christmas. We must not lose hope, but we must not allow ourselves to be drugged by “hopium”, the new name for false hope, either. I think the most important thing we can do for the climate is to be honest with ourselves and others. Am I willing to accept the consequences of what I do or the consequences of what I don’t do when all the facts are taken into account?

The Climate Crisis Post 10

COP28 is coming to an end. There are both bright spots and disappointments. The major trends are still pointing in the wrong direction. It is probably not there, together with more and more fossil fuel lobbyists, that the climate crisis is going to be solved. On the other hand, more activism and grassroots initiatives are the key to creating the necessary political pressure and understanding of the crisis. The message is therefore: commit yourself to the climate and nature!

The future looks increasingly bleak, but there is still some hope. It is more and more clear than ever that we will not survive this if we do not take to the streets to demand the necessary action. There are also positive developments, but these would not have happened if there had not also been increasing pressure for more action. This is not going to happen by itself. Therefore, I encourage everyone to join the Grønn Bølge demonstrations against oil exploration: The Climate March, where the next one is 11.

The Climate Crisis Post 8

This week, the climate summit COP28 starts in Dubai. These records may seem gloomy, but the main purpose is to be realistic and create an understanding of the crisis. It is always the most important and first thing one should do to understand the scale of the crisis. The biggest threat to climate solutions is that we believe that someone else will solve it. When it comes to solutions, the key is to reveal the false solutions and ensure a comprehensive and honest analysis.

Records are being broken, but the world is not at all on track for a livable future, reports the UN in a new report. Phasing out fossil energy is vital. Research New study “The State of the Cryosphere 2023 – Two Degrees is Too High” from the international Cryosphere Climate Initiative warns that 2 degrees of warming will lead to an irreversible loss of the Earth’s ice masses. https://iccinet.org/statecryo23/
