Global heating and other human activity are making Asia’s floods more lethal Much improved response systems are struggling to cope with ever more powerful and destructive storms

At least 1,200 people dead and a million displaced in a week due to Asia's lethal floods.

“The influence of human-induced climate change on the intensification of heavy precipitation is well established, and this is a key element in the reported floodings.”

New national climate plans have barely moved the needle on limiting global warming. Yet there is hope.

According to UNEP's latest #EmissionsGap Report, accelerated adoption of renewable energy and falling costs mean we have the tools to cut emissions now: www.unep.org/news-and-sto...

Shocking.
Our planet has passed its first 'tipping point' with widespread coral reef die-off, a new report says, and other environmental systems including the Amazon, major ocean currents and ice sheets aren't far behind.

‘Planetary health diet’ could save 40,000 deaths a day, landmark report finds Diet allows modest meat consumption and would also slash food-related climate emissions by half, says report by 70 leading experts from 35 countries Adoption of a plant-rich “planetary health diet” could prevent 40,000 early deaths a day across the world, according to a landmark report. The diet – which allows moderate meat consumption – and related measures would also slash the food-related emissions driving global heating by half by 2050. Today, a third of greenhouse gas emissions come from the global food system and taming the climate crisis is impossible without changing how the world eats, the researchers said. Food production is also the biggest cause of the destruction of wildlife and forests and the pollution of water. Continue reading...

A recipe for avoiding 15 million deaths a year and climate disaster is fixing food, scientists say Scientists are presenting new evidence that the worst effects of climate change can’t be avoided without a major transformation of food systems.

When it comes to climate change, our diets matter — and matter a lot.

Not to mention for biodiversity, water, and especially our own health.

The updated EAT-Lancet report makes this abundantly clear.
