Researchers measured #oxygen consumption in living #animals to show that slower metabolisms could not cope with warming, oxygen depleted waters 252 million years ago. The authors warn that today’s warming #oceans could trigger a similar ecological shift.

A ‘Cop of peace’? How can #authoritarian, #HumanRights-trashing #Azerbaijan possibly host that?

"The #ClimateCrisis is just as much about protecting human rights as it is about protecting the #Climate and #biodiversity. You cannot claim to care about #ClimateJustice if you ignore the sufferings of oppressed and #colonised people today. We cannot pick and choose whose human rights to care for, and who to leave behind. Climate justice means justice, safety and freedom for everyone."

by #GretaThunberg, November 11, 2024

"Cop meetings have proven to be #greenwashing conferences that legitimise countries’ failures to ensure a livable world and future and have also allowed authoritarian regimes like #Azerbaijan and the two previous hosts – the #UnitedArabEmirates and #Egypt – to continue violating human rights.

"#Genocides, #ecocides, #famines, #wars, #colonialism, rising inequalities and an escalating #ClimateCollapse are all interconnected crises that reinforce each other and lead to unimaginable suffering. While #humanitarian crises are unfolding in #Palestine, #Yemen, #Afghanistan, #Sudan, #Congo, #Kurdistan, #Lebanon, #Balochistan, #Ukraine, #NagornoKarabakh / #Artsakh, and many, many other places, humanity is also breaching the 1.5C #GreenhouseGas emissions limit, with no signs of real reductions in sight.

"Instead, the opposite is taking place – last year, global emissions reached an all-time high. #Heat records have been shattered, and this year is 'virtually certain' to be the hottest year ever recorded, with unprecedented #ExtremeWeather events pushing the planet further into uncharted territory. The destabilisation of the biosphere and the natural #ecosystems we depend on to survive is leading to untold human suffering and further accelerating the #MassExtinction of flora and fauna."

#ThackerPass #Protectors File First-Ever '#BiodiversityNecessityDefense' in #Nevada Court

While pursuing a '#ClimateNecessityDefense,' and making allegations that #mining company has violated their rights, their attorney said, 'They’re not criminals; they’re heroes.'

Bhie-Cie Zahn-Nahtzu: “#LithiumNevada is a #greedy #corporation on the wrong side of history when it comes to #EnvironmentalRacism and desecration of #SacredSites. It’s ironic to me that I’m the trespasser because I want to see my ancestral land preserved.”

By #ProtectThackerPass, #CensoredNews, March 26, 2024

"In a first for the American legal system, the lawyers for six people sued by Lithium Nevada Corporation for protesting the Thacker Pass mine are arguing a ‘biodiversity necessity defense.’

"The necessity defense is a legal argument used to justify breaking the law when a greater harm is being prevented; for example, breaking a car window to save an infant locked inside on a stifling hot day, or breaking down a door to help someone screaming inside a locked home. In these cases, trespassing is justified to save a life.
.
"This week’s filing states: 'Defendants possessed an actual belief that their acts of protest were necessary to prevent the present, continuing harms and evils of #ecocide and irreversible #ClimateChange.'

"'We’re in the midst of the 6th #MassExtinction of life on Earth, and it’s being caused by human activities like mining,' said attorney Terry Lodge, who is representing the #protesters. 'Our lives are made possible by #biodiversity and #ecosystems. Protecting our children from pollution and biodiversity collapse isn’t criminal, it’s heroic.'

"Currently Earth is experiencing one of the most rapid and widespread extinction events in the planet’s 4-billion-year history.

"Biologists report that habitat destruction, like the bulldozing of nearly 6,000 acres of biodiverse #sagebrush steppe for the Thacker Pass mine, is the main cause of this '#6thMassExtinction.'"

What #Supernova Distance Would Trigger A #MassExtinction?

@Snoro why is it that it reads "Government"? Shouldn't it read UK, instead? Getting to #NetZero is everyone's job! Alas, for the majority of voters promises of lower taxes, Britishness (whatever that is), and #FearOfChange are far more appealing than averting the impending #ClimateBreakdown, #MassExtinction, and the vision of living in a country build upon #SocialJustice, #EqualOpportunity, and #Empathy.
Grow up everybody and take responsibility for your actions or the lack thereof!
