With climate, we are finally starting to realize that this is a story about people, not about science, graphs or charts. It’s really a story about ourselves and how we interact with the rest of the world.

I lose sleep over climate change almost every single night. I can’t remember how long this has been happening, but it’s been quite a while, and it’s only getting worse. I confess: I need help.

At some point, we have to say it: Climate change is the biggest act of injustice in the history of humanity. It is our moral duty to demand justice, whatever the cost.
That time for me is now.

We won't survive this century unless we start caring more about each other. Compassion. Empathy. Love.
The internet has connected us, now it's up to our hearts to do the rest.

We need everyone.

Do what you can, whatever that is. Everyone has part of the answer. We need each other, and we are in this together. We can imagine and demand and build a better world.
We must insist that time start now.

Minute-by-minute, huge skyscraper-sized shards of ice cliffs would crumble into the sea, as tall as the Statue of Liberty and as deep underwater as the height of the Empire State Building. The result: a global catastrophe the likes of which we’ve never seen.

A fast transition away from fossil fuels in the next few decades could be enough to put off rapid sea-level rise for centuries. That’s a decision worth countless trillions of dollars and millions of lives.
'The range of outcomes,' Bassis says, 'is really going to depend on choices that people make.'

I’m not sure how much more clearly we can say this:
Everything we’re doing, if it doesn’t involve eliminating fossil fuel use immediately, is actively making the climate problem worse.
There is no time left for incremental action. It is literally do or die time.

Our job as people who understand the fundamental connectedness of the environment and thriving life of all kinds is to shift our culture (relatively quickly) to make the most meaningful of these changes feel inevitable.
That shift starts with each of us.

I'm a meteorologist by training and a journalist by profession. For the past 12 years, I've focused every working day on understanding, explaining, and trying to alleviate the effects of climate change. Yet global carbon emissions are more than 20 percent higher now than when I started work as a climate journalist. It's difficult not to internalize some of this as a personal failure.

Time is running short, but that doesn’t mean we should be reckless. We are fast entering a world in which there are no good options remaining to tackle climate change. Geoengineering is dangerous, but so are aerosols, and so is accelerating climate change. Absent a real-life Hollywood miracle, we’ll likely need to try some interventions that would have been better left to the movies.

A wholesale collapse of Pine Island and Thwaites would set off a catastrophe. Giant icebergs would stream away from Antarctica like a parade of frozen soldiers. All over the world, high tides would creep higher, slowly burying every shoreline on the planet, flooding coastal cities and creating hundreds of millions of climate refugees.
All this could play out in a mere 20 to 50 years — much too quickly for humanity to adapt.
