EU prepares to push for ‘global phase-out’ of fossil fuels at COP28, draft document shows::A proposal to phase out CO2-emitting fossil fuels at COP27 last won backing from more than 80 countries but oil and gas-rich nations opposed it.
This was needed 20 years ago, now is probably too late. So heres a lyric written by Fit For An Autopsy about this very thing:
"A thousand fires turn the forests into dust and bone.
A wind so thick with ash, statues shatter into stone.
Retreat beyond the walls where vultures go to die.
Scavenge for substance as the last is swallowed by the flies."
The best moment to act was yesterday. The second best moment is now.
It’s not too late.
It might not be, but the measures needed are increasingly extreme and verbose. We do not have time to plan.
It may be too late to avoid negative effects if climate change but it’s never too late to avoid worse effects
I’d be down to organize.
