Only One Earth Science
An important initiative in the lead up to Stockholm+50 in June 2022 comes from OnlyOneEarth.Science, with striking graphics that illustrate the environmental crises we are facing as we have failed to respond to the science of climate change and biodiversity loss for fifty years and are still failing to avoid what the UN Secretary-General has called planetary suicide. The data compiled show that it is the ultra-rich countries that are largely responsible for this deplorable state of affairs. Only binding laws to force the necessary reductions might have a chance of saving us from disaster, but we are far from seeing that as a practical possibility given the powerful forces resisting any change. Visit their website at https://onlyoneearth.science/ to see the graphics they have so carefully assembled counting down to disaster, and share them widely.
