    UN Secretary-General António Guterres says; “The situation we are witnessing now is a demonstration that Climate Change is out of control! If we persist in delaying key measures that are needed, I think that we are moving into a catastrophic situation.” theguardian.com/environment/20

    Natasha Bulowski says: “If you’re not terrified, ‘you’re not paying attention’: Politicians, activist urge action amid record-breaking temperatures” nationalobserver.com/2023/07/0

    What are those “Key Measures”? Are you terrified yet? Is there anything that you can do without waiting on the ‘powers that be’?

    When it comes to the #ClimateEmergency - It is not hopeless & we, the people are not helpless! If we take individual action now - without asking anyone! theguardian.com/commentisfree/

    IMO, it’s up to us – WE,THE PEOPLE, to save planet Earth by becoming #ClimateConsumers who actively mitigate global warming by our daily choices of: who we donate to, vote for, invest/divest/bank in; what we buy, eat, drive/pedal; to switch from gas to electric; to reduce, reuse, recycle; & consume less. news.climate.columbia.edu/2018

    This must see short film: “Wake Up, Freak Out – then Get a Grip” youtube.com/watch?v=VnyLIRCPaj tells us that “preventing run-away Global Warming is the single most important task in all of human history - and it is up to us to do it. If we don’t then everything else we have achieved in our lives will become meaningless”!

    The United nation says: “Everyone can help limit climate change. From the way we travel, to the electricity we use, the food we eat, and the things we buy, we can make a difference.” un.org/en/actnow/ten-actions

    Robert Reich @rbreich Says “A handful of billionaires now have unprecedented control over banking, the food we eat, the health care we can access and, now, the information we receive…” youtube.com/watch?v=Y_sjfchNsi But, these Oligarchs got rich by convincing us to buy products that we don’t actually need & that are harmful to our planet. So, stop buying those products!

    You don't need more scientists to solve the climate crisis - they already have? What we need is a way to inform everyone to stop expecting someone else (leaders, governments, & etc) and take individual climate action.

    Explain to everyone who is trying to figure out what they each can do to actually mitigate global warming that they should visit the following links!

    Can healthy food save the planet? eatforum.org/learn-and-discove

    The blindingly obvious truth is that earth cannot support 70B+ farmed animals *ANNUALLY* & the only way we can stop the breeding, confinement, drugging, slaughtering and processing of 70 billion land animals every year is by people choosing to drastically reduce their consumption of animal products (especially beef).

    @alexwild

    Alex - I have to take exception to your assertation that ("we"- the actual people- have little power to make the decisions necessary to fix things). It is the opinion of many that if “we” the actual people don’t take individual action to reduce global warming then all is lost. Just take the food we eat for example:

    “Cutting animal-based foods in US diet by half could prevent 1.6 billion tons of GHG emissions by 2030” news.umich.edu/cutting-animal-

    “15.4% of global greenhouse gas emissions come from animal agriculture, comparable to all transportation (cars, trucks, trains, planes) combined.” ffacoalition.org/facts/animal-

    “A human who follows a #plantbased diet, produces 50% less CO2, uses 1/11 oil, 1/13 water and 1/18 the land, compared to a #meat eater” cowspiracy.com/facts

    Please watch *Eating our way to extinction youtube.com/watch?v=LaPge01NQT

    When it comes to the #ClimateEmergency - It is not hopeless & we, the people are not helpless! If we take individual action - without asking anyone!

    This must see short film: “Wake Up, Freak Out – then Get a Grip” youtube.com/watch?v=VnyLIRCPaj tells us that “preventing run-away Global Warming is the single most important task in all of human history - and it is up to us to do it.

    You are correct when you say “The small group of sociopathic billionaires driving the destruction would like nothing more than for us to blame ourselves for what they are actively doing to us, absolving them of blame.”
    But that means only that “We, the actual people, must understand their motivation & then act in a way that helps the planet.

    @jamesgbradbury @TheGentYYC @gretathunberg @rbreich

    IMO the problem with trying to convince people to consider changing their diet to reduce GHGs caused by Animal Agriculture is that the current US Government is not incentivized to inform the public of the climate impacts. Therefore, we, the people, have to act without waiting for our Leaders.
    E.g, the U.S. Departments of Health and Human Services (HHS) and Agriculture (USDA) work together to update and release the Dietary Guidelines every five years.
    The USDA may be the most dangerous & corrupt ‘Captive Agency’ in the U.S. government & the worst for climate change! Please read: “Abolish the Department of Agriculture” newrepublic.com/article/164874
    And yet, he blindingly obvious truth is that earth cannot support 70B+ farmed animals *ANNUALLY* & the only way we can stop the breeding, confinement, drugging, slaughtering and processing of 70 billion land animals every year is by people choosing to drastically reduce their consumption of animal products (especially beef).

    Fortunately the EAT-Lancet Commission has proposed a global planetary health diet that is healthy for both people and the planet. eatforum.org/lancet-commission

    So, I implore everyone to understand that when it comes to the #ClimateEmergency - It is not hopeless & we, the people are not helpless! However we must take individual action - without asking anyone!

    I read your article & I am afraid that you are correct. But, I also realize that when it comes to the #ClimateEmergency - many say that is not hopeless & we, the people are not helpless!

    WE,THE PEOPLE can save planet Earth (without asking anyone) by becoming #ClimateConsumers who actively mitigate global warming by our daily choices of who we donate to, vote for, invest/divest/bank in; what we buy, eat, drive/pedal; to degasifying & electrifying everything; reduce, reuse, recycle; & consume less. news.climate.columbia.edu/2018

    It should be noted that "Climate related risks to health, food security, water supply and economic growth can be greatly reduced by "we, the people" taking #ClimateAction & we don't have to ask or wait on anybody.

    IMHO when it comes to the #ClimateEmergency - It is not hopeless & we, the people are not helpless!

    The United nation says: “Everyone can help limit climate change. From the way we travel, to the electricity we use, the food we eat, and the things we buy, we can make a difference.” un.org/en/actnow/ten-actions

    It’s up to us – WE,THE PEOPLE to save planet Earth by becoming #ClimateConsumers who actively mitigate global warming by our daily choices of who we donate to, vote for, invest/divest/bank in; what we buy, eat, drive/pedal; to degasifying & electrifying everything; reduce, reuse, recycle; & limit our overconsumption. news.climate.columbia.edu/2018

    I totally agree that Governments & leaders need to take more action on the #ClimateCrisis . But, not very hopeful.

    Well said!

    William Stanley Jevons - Arguably the ‘pioneer of modern economics’ says: The consumer is the “ultimate regulator of demand” and "Value is created by the consumer, not the producer” e.g. The value of a coat depends on how much a person desires it. (theatlantic.com/business/archi)

    @breadandcircuses

    I agree with Greta & all of your post.

    Maybe instead of whining & wringing our hands because our leaders are weak and corrupt we should take #ClimateAction without waiting for them!

    “We cannot address climate change without moving away from fossil fuels. ‘Equally’, we cannot reach our climate targets without tackling global food production. Even if we stopped emissions from fossil fuels right now, emissions from food production alone would take us well beyond the carbon budget for 1.5°C, and leave little room to reach our 2°C target.” ourworldindata.org/food-emissi

    The EAT-Lancet Commission says that we can feed 10B people a healthy diet within IPCC goals. eatforum.org/eat-lancet-commis

    “The annual methane emissions from AAg alone causes more incremental global warming than the annual CO2 emissions from all FF sources combined.” climatehealers.org/the-science
