    Remember: 1. The oceans are being killed. 2. Forests will soon be gone. 3. Fertile soil is disappearing. 4. Megafauna risk extermination. 5. Insects are vanishing. 6. Climate chaos is inevitable. 7. Extinction is now. 8. Plastic is in our blood. None of this is front page news.

    And here : 'While the projections show the Persian Gulf may become the region of the worst heat waves on the planet, northern India is a close second, Eltahir says, and eastern China, also densely populated, is third.'

    The world's megacities - some of which are soon set to be hit by unsurvivable humid heat waves - will be swallowed by accelerating sea level rise from 2035.

    Corporate capitalism is driving land degradation through greenhouse gas emissions, industrial agriculture, deforestation, mining etc. Climate change 'plays a significant role, increasing the risk of drought.'

    The number of people 'displaced due to issues linked to scarce land resources...could reach up to 10 billion' within decades. Most people are set to be displaced as 90% of land is degraded into desert conditions by industrial agriculture & climate change.

    Is this multi-millionaire/billionaire, neocolonial, global economic system most responsible for deforestation; trophy hunting; climate breakdown; mass poverty; 25% of humans suffering hunger; and elephants, rhinos & hippos being driven to extinction? Yes.

    If we continue our current level of greenhouse gas emissions, the climate in 2030 will resemble the 2°C - 4°C mid-Pliocene. "It's very possible that both ecological systems and human systems may fail to adapt rapidly enough, with devastating consequences."
