A landmark UN report says the world will overshoot the 1.5°C climate target.

Anti-Fascist Economics
In Defense of Affordability, Dignity, and Democracy, By Isabella Weber"In a neoliberal world, we tell people at the same time: Democracy is the highest form of political organization. And: When it comes to the economy, to the material foundation of our life, the best the representatives of the people can do is to subordinate their constituencies to the corporate pursuit of profits.This basic contradiction between the rule of the people and the rule of the market makes neoliberal democracy vulnerable to the threat of fascism..." >>

Setting our world on fire as we stagger towards the flames.
* "This is not a natural calamity: it is being done to us knowingly."
Tim Winton"The dangerous conditions climate scientists long warned of have become our common, if deeply unwelcome, experience, and season by season, our acquaintance with disorder and extremities deepens. In both hemispheres, wildfires rage right into our cities and incinerate entire neighbourhoods. Marine heatwaves are bleaching corals and cooking seagrasses on a global scale. This northern summer has brought temperatures most Europeans associate with the Australian desert. Heat events in Europe have paralysed whole countries, destroyed infrastructure and killed citizens in their thousands."
"There’s nothing accidental or inadvertent about what we’re all suffering through together. We’ve had enough time now and have sufficient expertise to understand that this is not a natural calamity. This is something that is being done to us. Knowingly. Which makes it a crime." >>

Travelling through the hot outdoors
"Extreme heat poses an urgent threat to human health. It kills thousands of people each year, and research suggests this figure is rising due to the effects of human-induced climate change. In Australia alone, the number of deaths from heatwaves is expected to double in the next 40 years."
"Research shows people often recognise the risks of extreme heat, but don’t believe it will affect them personally. educating people about extreme heat led them to avoid heatwave-prone places." >>

"Limiting further warming through reductions in greenhouse gas emissions remains the most fundamental way to prevent these risks from continuing to grow." >>

A Plan for Equality & Prosperity Within Planetary Boundaries
A habitable world is possible"The Global Justice Report is part of a broader international agenda for planetary habitability, social justice, and reform of the global financial architecture."
"The Global Justice Project attempts to set out a new vision for global progress in the 21st century: grounding human development and equality in planetary habitability. It explores the conditions under which the world could move toward this horizon and traces an economically and ecologically consistent transition path from 2026 to 2100." >>
https://globaljusticeproject.wid.world/Summary: The Global Justice Report
A Plan for Equality & Prosperity Within Planetary Boundaries
"It is possible to reconcile planetary habitability and high well-being for all, but only if the transformation rests on three pillars simultaneously. Fast decarbonization of energy systems is necessary. But we also need a major shift toward sufficiency – understood as a sharp reduction in labour hours and material footprint and large changes in consumption patterns, food habits, land use, and forest cover. In addition, neither decarbonization nor sufficiency can be financed and politically sustained without a drastic reduction in inequality of income, wealth and power, both between countries and within them. The compression of global inequality is not only compatible with deep decarbonization; it is a necessary condition for shared prosperity on a finite planet." >>
