Business as usual


 Peter Kalmus is a NASA climate scientist:

"We’re going to lose everything. And we’re not joking, we’re not lying, we’re not exaggerating."

"It’s incredible to me how many people aren’t yet terrified by the climate emergency."

"There is no way to escape a heat wave, if it’s bad enough."

"I’m amazed by how prevalent climate denial still is. Even at 1.3°C of global heating in 2022, with the world burning and melting all around us. If everyone agreed this was an emergency, we’d halt it in a few years."

"The single biggest media failure of all time is how the media still isn’t treating global heating as an emergency."

"If you think about it, every problem in society, including Earth breakdown, comes down to the ultra rich controlling everything and making self-dealing decisions."

 Far from alarming us, media headlines are literally celebrating indications of looming climate collapse. There is no sense of crisis. Climate scientists are warning that every heatwave occurring today is more intense due to climate change.
