Death Comes to the Amazon, But Don’t Blame Nature, It’s Man Who Sets the Fires

In the minds of many, death looms over the Amazon like plague-infested Europe in the Middle Ages. But while drinking from a branch that spewed forth clean water, to me the Amazon was a place of mercy, of life, of survival. Today though, the Amazon is indeed a place cursed with death, not from the man-eating ants of Indiana Jones legends, but of man-made fires in Brazil. Still, while satellites show striking images of entire sections of the rain forest engulfed in flames, I see the life that sprouts up at every inch of the jungle….

If we, on the other hand, allow for socio-political pressures to taint our analysis, we are left with nothing but awe for nature’s destructive power and remorse for our own, human, errors

Many small islands and coastal populations could be destroyed due to rise in sea level and extreme weather. U.S and fossil fuel companies are most responsible and need to be held accountable if prevention is to be possible.

Climate change, secondo un nuovo report la COP21 è stata troppo ottimista

Il nuovo report pubblicato da IPCC lancia l'allarme: la temperatura media globale potrebbe crescere molto più velocemente di quanto previsto dalla COP21 di Parigi, e il Mar Glaciale Artico potrebbe rimanere senza ghiaccio marino in estate. Per questo, i ricercatori hanno teorizzato la necessità di adottare misure ancora più restrittive, per limitare il riscaldamento globale a 1,5°C, invece che a 2°C. Prima che sia troppo tardi
