A Wake-Up Call to the Press, Fossil Fuel Giants, and Humanity

It's time for the press to stand on the right side of history, to amplify the truth, and to expose the misinformation spread by the very industries that are driving us towards catastrophe. The media must play a crucial role in educating the public about the dire situation we find ourselves in and the urgent actions needed to avert disaster. To the fossil fuel giants, the evil monsters of our time, wake up from the nightmare you are living. No amount of money can buy a new planet. Your children and grandchildren deserve to experience the wonders of this Earth, just as we have. But the path you are on is leading us to the brink of destruction. The difference between the Ice Age and the perfect temperature for nature to evolve was only 4 degrees Celsius. We are already 1.5 degrees above that, a point reached in July 2023. Many scientists believe that this is a major tipping point, and the widespread effects are a clear indication that we may already be too late. The process has beg...

How to Understand the IPCC's Figure SPM.1

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is the leading international body for assessing the scientific basis of climate change, its impacts and potential future risks, and possible response options. The IPCC produces comprehensive Assessment Reports every six to seven years, as well as Special Reports on specific topics. The Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) is the latest and most comprehensive assessment of the state of knowledge on climate change. The AR6 consists of three Working Group reports and a Synthesis Report (SYR), which integrates the findings of the Working Group reports and the Special Reports. The SYR is written in a non-technical style suitable for policymakers and addresses a broad range of policy-relevant but policy-neutral questions. The Summary for Policymakers (SPM) of the SYR provides a concise overview of the key messages and findings of the SYR. One of the most important figures in the SPM is Figure SPM.1, which shows how human activities have affected ...
