New UN report highlights the scale of global climate change. Last year, records for sea level rise, glacier melt, and temperatures were broken, the World Meteorological Agency (WMO) warns in a new report.

The UK is “strikingly unprepared” to Adapt to Climate Change (Climate Change Committee)

“Scientists have delivered a “final warning” on the climate crisis, as rising greenhouse gas emissions push the world to the brink of irrevocable damage that only swift and drastic action can avert.”

This is the focus of the UK Climate Resilience Programme, which is a government-backed initiative with the goal of understanding the risks the nation faces and helping people to adapt accordingly.

This is an excellent summary of why the majority of the public are not aware of how urgent and dangerous climate change is:

A really useful Summary of what was (and wasn’t) achieved at Glasgow’s COP26

The choices societies make now will determine whether our species thrives or simply survives as the 21st century unfolds, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) says in a draft report seen exclusively by AFP.

The third Risk Assessment for the UK by the Climate Change Committee

“Trajectories of the Earth System in the Anthropocene”, a recent study co-authored by Will Steffen, noted chemist, climate systems analyst, and professor of Earth System Science at Australian National University, warns of catastrophic changes to the Earth climate if current emission trends are not immediately reversed.

This is a valuable and comprehensive collection of resources on Reddit for those who would like to deepen their understanding of societal collapse in all its dimensions.

This is a clear, concise layout from Paul Ehrlich about the many measures of humanity’s damage to ecosystems and habitat around the world. This talk is part of a 2021 conference, Delivering the Human Future. Produced by The Council for the Human Future.

The 2021 Climate Security Risk Perception Survey was administered from February-March 2021 with responses from 57 global climate security experts working on these issues in the fields of defense and intelligence, climate and ecosystem change, and national security.

Climate tipping points — too risky to bet against (nature.com) Explainer: Nine ‘tipping points’ that could be triggered by climate change | Carbon Brief

Written by Dr Emily Grossman with the support of the XR Scientists community. Fact-checked and reviewed by a wide range of experts.

This graph shows that we’ve been trying to act for a while…  and all our attempts to reform since the Rio Earth Summit in 1992 have coincided with a 60% increase in total greenhouse gas emissions. It’s not working!

Research paper by Graham Turner. The 1972 book Limits to Growth, which predicted our civilisation would probably collapse some time this century, has been criticised as doomsday fantasy since it was published. This research paper has found the book’s forecasts are accurate, 40 years on. If we continue to track in line with the book’s […]
