According to the news of The Hill More than 15 thousand scientists who signed the report believe that many temperature records broken recently are ‘serious threats to vital signs’He wrote that he pointed to
‘Vital signs’ It refers to 35 indicators ranging from human population and energy consumption to the loss of the Brazilian Amazon rainforest. Twenty of these vital indicators are currently in record extremes, according to the report.
Accordingly, three of the main greenhouse gases – carbon dioxide, nitrogen oxide and methane – are at record levels. The authors also noted that 2023 is the hottest summer on record and will likely rank among the hottest years ever recorded.
The report also noted that the oceans are warmer than ever, while ocean acidity, glacier thickness and Greenland ice mass have reached all-time lows.
The warning also states that some circles ‘green recovery’ It was noted that despite hopes, fossil fuel use increased rapidly after Covid-19 closures were lifted.
Renewable energy consumption increased by 17 percent between 2021 and 2022, but fossil fuel energy consumption is still approximately 15 times higher.
‘TA system that supports meeting the basic needs of all people need’
Humanity is not on track to reverse deforestation by the end of the current decade, the authors wrote, and the devastating Canadian wildfires are contributing to both deforestation and carbon emissions.
One of the biggest challenges is the conflict between the traditional idea of economic growth and ecological goals, scientists said.
“Therefore, we need to transform our economy into a system that supports meeting the basic needs of all people, rather than overconsumption by the rich.” The authors stated that in 2019, 48 percent of global emissions were emitted by the richest 10 percent, while the bottom 50 percent emitted only 12 percent:
“Addressing the underlying issue of ecological overshoot, rather than focusing solely on carbon reduction and climate change, will give us our best chance of surviving these challenges in the long term. This is our moment to make a profound difference for all life on earth. “We must embrace this with unwavering courage and determination to create a legacy of change that will endure the passage of time.”
