UN climate report ‘code red for humanity’: Guterres

World leaders and environmentalists are reacting with alarm to a UN scientific report on the scale of the climate emergency.
It says there is no longer any doubt that human activity is warming the planet and warns that some of that impact is irreversible.
Every region of the world is affected by heatwaves, droughts, or other extreme weather phenomena according to the report.
The UN Secretary-General is calling the study a 'code red' for humanity.

Al Jazeera's Nick Clark reports from Manavgat in southern Turkey, where wildfires have caused widespread destruction.

I hope that we can make through to 2022

Suggestions
1. Start using soda fountains where you get your personal reusable bottle filled, then ban sodas, juices, and water in plastic bottles. This technology alone would save possibly billions of tons in waste and is already used all over.
2. Go back to using wax paper for wrapping sandwiches as this will eventually go back to nature. Ban plastic sandwich bags.
3. Grocery stores should only be allowed to offer unprinted paper, or back to nature plastic bags for customers that forget their own.
4. Solar, wind, and water based electrical power generation should all be developed before any other less Eco friendly sources would be allowed.
5. Now buildings can be built at any level without using wood, we should convert all housing and other construction to these products, and stop cutting down trees.
6. We must start buying electric vehicles from bikes to cars, pickups, and SUV's. Also get solar panels on your vehicle. Even if it only gets you a few miles per day it all adds up to that much less pollution from coal and nuclear power generation stations.
7. All maritime vessels should be fully equipped with solar panels and/or bladeless turbines that would help supplement or replace the power used from diesel generators to run the ship. If a large vessel becomes totally free of polluting fuels great, but in the meantime any percentage we can reduce is great and should be done.
Now also have wind power including the use of a big free floating large air sail. and maybe regular masts and sails, and use these to reduce even the electricity needed, making solar and wind recharging more likely without diesel.
8. With solar, water, and wind generated power getting cheaper, and with batteries now available with much better storage capacities, and at much cheaper prices than before, we must all convert our homes and shops. This will stop massive amounts of coal and nuclear pollution along with the diesel used to mine and transport it.
9. This is very important. WE MUST immediately set a population cap on earth and start imposing a one child law on all areas over that amount of density. In short the biggest threat to our existence is the massive consumption of resources to support us all. We need a one child law world wide, that is automatic once this density is reached. It must be enforced.
10. We all must vote Green world wide before it is too late. Look around and see all the weather getting ever more erratic as we continue to pollute. In a very few years it will be too late. Voting Green now is something we all can do at every level, in every election, in every part of the world. This will make a difference, as it will not only get concerned people in elected positions, but will scare politicians from other parties into getting greener in order to stay elected.
Above all please remember this, a mass shift in voting is one thing that will get much attention in political circles.

I love how that lady is cleaning knee deep water with a brush. Gotta keep the surface looking shiny. 1:55

Just heard, that in 1990 81% of our energy was fossil fuels. 20 years later, in 2019 it's still 81%. The U.N. also says it expects we will use 2% more fossil fuels each year for at least 10 years! Lastly, fossil fuel companies get 300 times the subsidizes of clean energy companies. We are standing still, so dealing with the climate crisis is miniscule in my book.

Don't worry everyone I'm sure the UN will do something useful like condemning global warming.

[clashofqueen]

Wow, code red and yet we still won't care. Smh. It's almost like we are wired to make things worse.

[jezreelfranklabro]

When the world end, , .. ? Is this the conclusions.

[gerrygeko]

Has the UN ever done anything right????

[SujoyBanerjee]

Antartic & Arctic Ice with Siberian permafrost are next to cause some changes...

[drabulhasandasankop]

It's global warming from heavens sins have reached the skies be ready for doomsday is fast approaching believe it or not no human can stop it

[annmariegeorge]

2021 fill off Surprises and Disaster .Lord put ah hand .

[Machster]

Don't worry the Talibums will fix it.

[AchmW]

Don't be HOAXED guys....don't let them do it to you🤣

[shuriKen]

common weather patterns perhaps? unexpected snow doesn't signal a drastic change if it last snowed 50 years ago. heatwave, cold snap, flooding, wild fires, drought have occured in the same areas every year or every other year. if a whole stable region gets totally wiped out, then you can bandy about the code red terminology. otherwise, the world is still and will continue to keep turning. fluctuations shouldn't be mistaken as abnormal.
