“Frightening read, but the real question is when will world leaders finally step up and confront this threat?”
That isn’t the real question, given we have the leaders *we* elected.
The question is: When are people going to start taking responsibility for their own direct and indirect impacts on the environment?

Britain of all countries can do very little to impact the rate of global warming.
Our best bet is Elon and his mission to colonise Mars.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Wrong in so many ways.
The British people and politicians could lead the world, and whilst doing so make a material difference in changing their behaviours given the nation’s consumption and output.
Plus, only mental futurists think Mars is colonisable. Listen to planetary scientists and astrophysicists and they’ll tell you it’s both a completely impractical endeavour and probably impossible in any case.

Ironically it's the right killing themselves right now by ignoring Covid. Trump's base dwindling away through sheer stupidity
----------------------------------------------------------------------
And those who got the experimental vaccine are due to start coming down with terminal diseases in a few years
Not even fully FDA approved and they couldn’t wait to inject themselves.
I’ve had Covid earlier this year. Piece of cake.

Anyway, I’ve done my bit. Got rid of my second car and replacing the other with a Tesla. Conscience is clear.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Averaged out, 74% of any vehicle's carbon footprint stems from its manufacture.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yep.
People be like, “I buy the greenest new car every two years!”
What we need to be doing is running every single car already manufactured absolutely into the ground whilst we replace private vehicle ownership with vastly improved green public transport, cycling, and car sharing schemes.

They need to get a grip on overpopulation for a start. Populations in Africa and Asia have surged in recent years. They reckon there will be 11bn people on the planet by 2100. Unsustainable.
The top 20 fastest accelerating populations are all in Africa and Asia, as are the countries doing the least to protect the environment.
Fastest growing populations:
Niger
São Tomé and Príncipe
Angola
DR Congo
Equatorial Guinea
Burundi
Zambia
Syrian Arab Republic
Chad
Burkina Faso
Mali
Tanzania
Somalia
The Gambia
Uganda
Mozambique
Gabon
South Sudan
Comoros
Guinea
We can all make changes is our daily lives and pressure governments as well, but what’s the point of it all if the species continue to breed like rabbits? Sh*gging ourselves into extinction.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
We’re heading for a huge population collapse in 20-30 years. We know there will be far less adults in 30 years than now, which is worrying for young folk who will have to look after old people.
People look at the figures and climate change and think, obviously we have too many people. There’s a huge shift and numbers are dwindling worldwide. A total population collapse is as, if not more worrying than global warming for many scientists.

While population collapse will be a thing, I think you're confusing the issue with ageing populations? Maybe I just misread your comment.
But yeah, the tax burden of all those pensioners will be insane. It already is to be fair. We'd best get used to the idea of working till we're 80.
A collapse is only a problem cos we've made it one through constant growth. And, it is an easier problem to address than climate change.
Other than that, I hope I get a wee honey to wipe my shiitty erse

No. When there is a population collapse, and the ratio of (young) adults to old people declines, who looks after the old people?
It will be a much bigger issue than now, because right now there are far more young adults than old.
But yes, global fertility rates are gradually shrinking and could well be the real threat to human civilisation.

That is true.
However, we will find a way, we’ve lived through an ice age with no technology. At some point the world will realise we have to change, but humans are very adaptable. We will lose other species along the way though.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm not sure what you're talking about here. Population collapse isn't some abstract thing that will happen. It's already happening in developed countries. Birth rates across the western world aren't enough to sustain populations. Through a mix of lifestyle choices and fertility.
This of course leads to ageing populations. And yeah they're worried about it. Though I suspect things will balance out in the medium term at least. All those climate refugees will maintain growth for a decent period while everything gets figured out
The earth could do with Thanos turning up. He would sort the problem of climate change overnight with a click of a finger.

We can all make changes is our daily lives and pressure governments as well, but what’s the point of it all if the species continue to breed like rabbits? Sh*gging ourselves into extinction.

We’re heading for a huge population collapse in 20-30 years. We know there will be far less adults in 30 years than now, which is worrying for young folk who will have to look after old people.
People look at the figures and climate change and think, obviously we have too many people. There’s a huge shift and numbers are dwindling worldwide. A total population collapse is as, if not more worrying than global warming for many scientists.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
While population collapse will be a thing, I think you're confusing the issue with ageing populations? Maybe I just misread your comment.
But yeah, the tax burden of all those pensioners will be insane. It already is to be fair. We'd best get used to the idea of working till we're 80.

A collapse is only a problem cos we've made it one through constant growth. And, it is an easier problem to address than climate change.

Other than that, I hope I get a wee honey to wipe my shiitty erse

They need to get a grip on overpopulation for a start. Populations in Africa and Asia have surged in recent years. They reckon there will be 11bn people on the planet by 2100. Unsustainable.
The top 20 fastest accelerating populations are all in Africa and Asia, as are the countries doing the least to protect the environment.
Fastest growing populations:
Niger
São Tomé and Príncipe
Angola
DR Congo
Equatorial Guinea
Burundi
Zambia
Syrian Arab Republic
Chad
Burkina Faso
Mali
Tanzania
Somalia
The Gambia
Uganda
Mozambique
Gabon
South Sudan
Comoros

No. When there is a population collapse, and the ratio of (young) adults to old people declines, who looks after the old people?
It will be a much bigger issue than now, because right now there are far more young adults than old.
But yes, global fertility rates are gradually shrinking and could well be the real threat to human civilisation.

Who does Covid target? I've thought this was a biglong term money maker or saver. No more pensions to pay out and keeps the old cants from clogging the hospital entrances so young healthy folk can get in.

That is true.
However, we will find a way, we’ve lived through an ice age with no technology. At some point the world will realise we have to change, but humans are very adaptable. We will lose other species along the way though.

I'm not sure what you're talking about here. Population collapse isn't some abstract thing that will happen. It's already happening in developed countries. Birth rates across the western world aren't enough to sustain populations. Through a mix of lifestyle choices and fertility.
This of course leads to ageing populations. And yeah they're worried about it. Though I suspect things will balance out in the medium term at least. All those climate refugees will maintain growth for a decent period while everything gets figured out

The earth could do with Thanos turning up. He would sort the problem of climate change overnight with a click of a finger.
