    The best reason to divest fossil fuel stock is that you'd like to help preserve a livable planet. Another reason is so that you won't lose your money.

    For decades, scientists' models showed doubling carbon dioxide levels ( 280 ppm to 560 pmm) would mean global average temperature rise of 3°C. New updates to the model, which improve the effect of clouds, say that scenario mnight mean 5°C warming. SCARY!

    Every day, I see people telling us "the real environmental problem is population growth." Yes, it does contribute to the pressures on the natural world. But while the global population is rising by 1% a year, consumption is rising by 3%. That's the biggest issue.

    Only ONE socio-economic scenario of the most recent climate models suggests we can limit warming to 2C - and it has us going *over 2C* within a couple of decades, before then cooling down via magical, drastic geoengineering measures (which don't exist). ⚠️

    Those who insist we need to keep growing the global economy even if it means warming the planet by 3C are saying they are willing to risk everything - literally everything - in order to make the rich richer.

    Media is a load-bearing wall in a healthy democracy. Citizens must demand that Fourth Estate informs, educates, shifts public discourse re most pressing issue of times: . If newsrooms fail, we must hold them to account.

    Also reposting this article: the media is in dereliction of duty when it comes to under-reporting on the climate crisis. In fact, some could say this behaviour amounts to journalistic malpractice. Hold our 'Fourth Estate' to account?

    Reposting this article, because it speaks to your point: the business media is complicit in the climate crisis, cheerleading those who play by the rules of extractive capitalism, instead of questioning the rules of the capitalist game.

    It appalling, mind-blowing! And entirely predictable. I’m amazed how the “fight back” notion has become the rallying call for those opposed to necessary change. Our energies (🥴) need to go into a just transition, not some mythical “clean coal”!! 🤦🏼‍♀️
