  1. 🚨 BREAKING: Today we are bringing our message to the courts! Six Scientist Rebellion activists pasted papers about the #ClimateEmergency, #BiodiversityCrisis and quotes of judges from trials of non-violent climate activists to the courthouse.

    Fake blood was poured onto ground – The failure of the judiciary to recognise the emergency we are in has real life consequences! As the secretary-general of the United Nations António Guterres said, failure to address climate change is criminal!

    The judiciary has the great responsibility to enforce the right to life and integrity enshrined in our constitution! #COP28 #HowMuchMore #FossilMadness
    @AufstandLastGen @xrgermany @ScientistRebellion

    More and more activists are facing judges and are trialed for their "crimes" – fighting for a liveable planet for all of us. For many judges we are nothing but a nuisance, case closed. Dare to take a stance, #FaceTheFacts! Here are some quotes from previous trials👇

    Quote of judge #1: "With a small minority is not acceptable to impose your position on others." – Apparently it is, but you have to be an executive of a fossil fuel company, then you'll have it your way and get billions on top! #HowMuchMore?

    Quote of judge #2: "Your behaviour is coercive towards the government." – You've got that the wrong way around. The G7 governments have pledged already back in 2009 to stop subsidising fossil fuels, but they don't do it. They are forcing the #FossilMadness on everybody!

    Quote of judge #3: "It is clear that you have to take a different path. I can't say which one." – Scientists get out of their labs and onto the streets, the #ClimateEmergency calls for everybody to leave their comfort zone, before the #HumanClimateNiche is gone!

    Quote of judge #4: "Saving lives is honorable. But in your case it is punishable." – Ruining a liveable planet for millions is abhorrent. But too often legal, and in case of fossil fuels the destruction is even subsidised by our government. #HowMuchMore?

    Quote of judge #5: "It would make sense if you found a quiet little room and thought about whether you're on the wrong track." – Our labs are quiet little rooms, we thought about this for decades. We need to accept the reality of the #ClimateEmergency and act accordingly!

    #TheScienceIsClear. We call on all judges and courts to recognise the emergency we are in. The judiciary has the duty to protect the right to life and integrity, for the current and future generations.

  5. Future of the human climate niche
    and
    Quantifying the human cost of global warming

    Future of the human climate niche
    "All species have an environmental niche, and despite technological advances, humans are unlikely to be an exception. Here, we demonstrate that for millennia, human populations have resided in the same narrow part of the climatic envelope available on the globe, characterized by a major mode around ∼11 °C to 15 °C mean annual temperature (MAT). "
    "We show that in a business-as-usual climate change scenario, the geographical position of this temperature niche is projected to shift more over the coming 50 y than it has moved since 6000 BP."
    "Global warming will affect ecosystems as well as human health, livelihoods, food security, water supply, and economic growth in many ways."
    pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.1910

    Quantifying the human cost of global warming
    "The costs of climate change are often estimated in monetary terms, but this raises ethical issues. Here we express them in terms of numbers of people left outside the ‘human climate niche’—defined as the historically highly conserved distribution of relative human population density with respect to mean annual temperature. We show that climate change has already put ~9% of people (>600 million) outside this niche."
    "The worst-case scenarios of ~3.6 °C or even ~4.4 °C global warming could put half of the world population outside the historical climate niche, posing an existential risk"
    "The ~2.7 °C global warming expected under current policies puts around a third of the world population outside the niche."

  7. "I'm deeply concerned at the sense of this country being disposable … This country is not disposable. And we need to be a little more aware, and more cognisant, of what our grandchildren are set to inherit. I don't think they're going to be terribly impressed with our passivity around environmental #destruction." Debra Dank

    Global heating will drive billions of people out of the “climate niche” in which humanity has flourished for millennia. The costs and #inequities of #ClimateChange.
