2030? WHY SO FAST?
As of APRIL 2021, WE HAVE 6 YEARS, 8 MONTHS until our pollution levels lock in 1.5 degrees warming. We’ve known for 40 years but haven’t acted. 2030 is the emergency timeline.
Between 1.5 and 2 degrees, disaster events called TIPPING POINTS ensue like ocean currents that stop flowing and the ice sheets that melt entirely. Tipping points then unleash irreversible domino effects that will “fundamentally disrupt the global climate system” – the foundation of human life.
Time has run out. We must stop our pollution now. Every nation in the world must take this action.
Fix how we make electricity, cars and food. There are other pollution sources, but this is the lion’s share. It’s all good change and very doable if we decide to act.
We went to the moon in a decade – we can do this!
