He mentiond climate change and pollution , well worth a read IMO
“The future is really daunting for people in the Maldives … the climate emergency is an existential threat that overshadows all the other issues.”
over 40 million people have died of air pollution since I became special rapporteur in 2018, yet I just can’t get people to care.
“I can’t get people to bat an eyelash. It’s like there’s something wrong with our brains that we can’t understand just how grave this situation is.”
“I think the right to a healthy environment is actually the foundation that we require to enjoy all other human rights. If we don’t have a living, healthy planet Earth, then all the other rights are just words on paper.”
If we don’t have a living, healthy planet Earth, then all the other rights are just words on paper.
I get his bemusement, just here in Australia, 11,000 die from air pollution from cars annually, another 20,00 are hospitalised annually. The numbers are beyond horrendous and yet, on a scale of 1 to 5 fucks given, it’s 0
What the fuck do you want ME to do about it? Every step I take to help the environment throughout my life, is undone by a billionaire in a day. You want to fix the climate issue? Toss the billionaires into a volcano and give their money to climate science and social programs
