Nakakaiyak. We have allowed our salaries to be chopped for our mandated health insurance only to find out that they were put in the pockets of corrupt people

The IPCC report is clear. We must move away from fossil fuel exploration and yet Recon Africa continues to drill for 120 billion oil barrels that will accelerate us past the recommended 1.5 degrees and poses a severe threat to the Kavango water basin #KavangoAlive #IPCC

No relief in sight. Day after day in range 45-50C, even 10 days out. That's 113-122F. These are temperatures that kill. Pakistan and NW India are being hit hardest, but it is brutal throughout most of India. Although there is little reporting, the death toll must be staggering.

Well, here we go again. The new normal. And it will only get worse, if we do not cut global emissions by half in 8 years and reach zero in 28 years. Europe heatwave: France braces for record-breaking temperatures as Spain battles forest fires theguardian.com/world/2022/jun…

JUST IN: The Duterte admin left the national debt at P12.79 trillion in end-June, after borrowings surged amid the pandemic. This is more than double the P5.9 trillion in debt that the Aquino admin left in 2016, putting the Marcos government at a much tighter fiscal spot.

Because of Marcos' Martial Law we lost generations of leaders. By the time Marcos left, Salonga, Diokno,Tañada & Manglapus was too old or can't connect w/ the electorate. Youth leaders like Edjop,Hilao,Camus, Trajano & Dijillo were too young to have been tortured & killed #Katips

Pakistan is still within its fair share of the safe planetary boundary for CO2 emissions. The global North countries, as a group, have overshot the boundary several times over, driving climate breakdown.

“The most important thing is to stop burning fossil fuels. The second most important thing is conserve the nature we already have. Trying to create new nature to absorb our fossil fuel emissions is way down the list of priorities.” vice.com/en/article/v7v…

Since 1959, Pakistan has been responsible for only 0.4% of the world’s historic CO2 emissions. The US is responsible for 21.5%. What's happening in Pakistan is climate injustice. The countries who are the least responsible for climate change are paying the highest price.
