Some humanes definitely are. But many are suffering already. With the impending environmental catastrophe, I’d argue humanity as a whole will suffer from the unhealthy relationship between the fossil fuel lobby and politicians.
Here is an absolutely crazy idea: Why don’t we save the corals by stopping pollution and fossil fuel usage?

Very good job and very nice that it made news in the guardian.
45·9 months ago1.5°C is a symbolic boundary. It was agreed to not be broken in the Paris agreement in 2016. Not even ten years later, it is broken for the eigth consecutive month and in the yearly average. It will be broken permanently in 5-10 years. It is a symbolic boundary because it is an arbitrary number and every tenth of a degree matters. We still need to support climat action even if it is broken. But it is also a symbol of political incompetency and fossil fuel malice.

How does it crash sync?
The last panel could have a lot of different captions. For example “but i am corrupt”
Environmental rights are already incorporated in the constitutions of many countries. Why are they not respected?

I’m linking them because I took a screenshot of their article. But you are right, I should link to more groups. Here are some good starting points for anyone interested:
Maybe we should try to prevent the disaster we are causing instead of watching?

Very informative, thank you!
Plastics are not directly causing global warming. But they are a byproduct of the fossil fuel industry and are part of the environmental crisis we are causing.

This was a few month ago during the last COP. Really no surprise that the COPs have been quite useless.

If you can’t find local advertisements, you can look through social media. Some big ones are fridays for future and the a22 network. For some of them, you can also help remotely. You could also look for some kind of green party or ask some of the larger players whether they know anyone.
If you are involved in science, also take a look at scientist rebellion.
I’m doing my best. Unfortunately however, I do believe we are in a position where this is not sufficient anymore so I’m also joining activists in the street and invite everyone to at least think about doing the same.
Governments are increasingly targeting activists with repressions. Why not follow the science and actually save our climate? This would end climate protests really quickly. There is little explanation except for malice that the combination of criminalizing activists and continuing emissions seems preferable.

Previously, Steffen et al. (2) proposed using the Biodiversity Intactness Index (BII) (27), an empirically based metric of human impacts on population abundances, as an interim proxy for functional biosphere integrity. It was noted, however, that the link of BII to Earth system functions remains poorly understood and BII cannot be directly linked to the planetary biogeochemical and energy flows relevant for establishing Earth system state. In addition, BII relies on expert elicitation to estimate temporal changes in species abundances/distributions, and this knowledge is not readily available for many regions, including the oceans. Martin et al. (28) have also recently suggested that BII only partially reflects human impacts on Earth system.
We therefore now replace this metric with a computable proxy for photosynthetic energy and materials flow into the biosphere (29), i.e., net primary production (NPP), and define the functional component of the biosphere integrity boundary as a limit to the human appropriation of the biosphere’s NPP (HANPP) as a fraction of its Holocene NPP. NPP is fundamental for both ecosystems and human societies as it supports their maintenance, reproduction, differentiation, networking, and growth. Biomes depend on the energy flow associated with NPP to maintain their planetary ecological functions as integral parts of Earth system. NPP-based energy flows into human societies should therefore not substantially compromise the energy flow to the biosphere (30). The proxy complements the diversity-based dimensions of biosphere integrity, covered by the genetic component, which captures the importance of variability in living organisms for the functioning of ecosystems. The suitability of NPP and HANPP for defining a planetary boundary has previously been discussed by Running (31) and Haberl et al. (32).
That’s regarding the method for biosphere integrity from the paper.
As we are already observing some of the catastrophic impacts of climate change, there is no change in greenhouse gas emissions. They are even increasing. At least Wile E. Coyote is intelligent enough to stop before catastrophe although we all know he is unable to avoid it. Why aren’t we?
