We are running out of time. By the year 2030, we must halve our greenhouse gas emissions if we’re to have any chance avoiding the worst of climate change.
That’s 10 years from now. To put that in perspective, Al Gore’s ‘An Inconvenient Truth’ was released fourteen years ago – in 2006.
We need to work simultaneously on multiple fronts to halt the climate emergency. Thankfully, there are lots of ways we can do this.
Stopping all new Fossil Fuel Infrastructure
Because pipelines have a payback period of decades, pro-pipeline groups are betting on the climate going over the tipping point – or that governments will use taxpayer dollars to bail them out.
