Over eleven thousand scientists from 153 countries havedeclared a climate emergency that could bring untold suffering if urgent actionis not taken to conserve the biosphere.
The signatories say in a paper published in BioscienceMagazine that Scientists have a moral obligation to clearly warn humanity ofany great existential threat.
The signatories also suggested six steps that wouldlessen the worst effects of climate change; replacing fossil fuels withlow-carbon renewables; reducing the emissions of pollutants such as methane.
Others steps include; protecting the earth’s ecosystems;eating mostly plant-based foods and fewer animal products; creating acarbon-free economy; and stabilising the human population.
The scientists said that they were encouraged by arecent surge of concern over the climate crisis, demonstrated by thestudent-led Fridays for Future movement and other grass-roots campaigns.
