Climate change is here, but we can still turn the tide

The document emphasizes the urgency of addressing climate change, citing the sixth IPCC report as definitive evidence that human-induced greenhouse gas emissions are raising global temperatures. It argues that while the effects of climate change—such as wildfires, droughts, and storms—are already present, drastic emission reductions can still secure a future where people and nature thrive.

• The sixth IPCC report, agreed upon by 195 member nations including China, Russia, and the US, confirms that greenhouse gases from human activity have increased average temperatures and will continue to do so, leading to devastating effects.
• Climate change is no longer a theoretical or distant problem, as evidence of its impact is now visible through current occurrences of storms, heat, erosion, melting, wildfires, and droughts.
• Despite the severity of the situation, the IPCC report indicates that a positive outcome is possible if there are drastic reductions in emissions.
