The future of the planet - and humanity - is now in our hands.
It is up to us - the PEOPLE -
to forestall abrupt climate change.
Among other things, we must bring about a rapid
reduction of global CO2 emissions to
ZERO and NET NEGATIVE.
World leaders did the best they could in Paris
these past 2 weeks during the UN'S COP21
summit on climate change.
But the entrenched forces of greed are a mighty foe.
About the accord just agreed upon at COP21,
environmental journalist George Monbiot says it best:
"By comparison to what it could have been, it's a miracle.
By comparison to what it should have been, it's a disaster. "
