I found this interview really interesting; they got into how the state of British democracy and how elections work affect action on the climate crisis

It seems like a lot of environmentalists moved from focusing squarely on the environment to looking at systems change, after experiencing so much inaction on the climate

What do you guys think?

Delhi ncr is again engulfed in the smog layer. Again we are diverted to the debate of festival vs pollution but haven't we understood this that we are human beings who can perceive what is right and wrong. I don't know it is pack of awareness or lack of taking decision or ignorance that we are not seeing the alarming situation.

I know people will criticize me but for their reference I should say they don't know the pain of loosing their loved ones due to non smoker suffering from cancer that too diagnosed in last stage. What kind of teaching we are teaching our small kids that by seeing immediate effect of pollution we are bursting crackers. By having air purifier and wearing mask people are bursting cracker. It is a paradox we want it reduce but we are not reducing it

GLOFs: glacial lake outburst floods, originate in the Himalayas, where our glaciers are melting because global temperatures are rising.

Our race for more development and our habit of consuming more are causing harm to the mountains and to the people who live there. We almost never ask why we want more, we only ask how to get more.

We say, “What can one person do?” Most of the time, that question isn’t a question at all; it’s an exit. We can start by cutting our own emissions.

How often do we question the consumption that contributes to the warming behind these floods?

This piece highlights the facts supporting the unavoidable scientific reality that, if we want to reduce emissions, we have to reduce our activity. Nothing less can have have any meaningful impact now on what is coming and-or help us adapt more effectively. This also illustrates with the simple evidence that, behind all the hype, the green transition and other ‘net-zero’ initiatives on their own, are already proven not to be effective.
