Europe is the fastest warming continent in the world, and climate risks are threatening its energy and food security, ecosystems, infrastructure, water resources, financial stability, and people’s health. According to the European Environment Agency’s (EEA) assessment, published today, many of these risks have already reached critical levels and could become catastrophic without urgent and decisive action.
Planet earth is not prepared for rapidly growing climate risks.
The planet does not care. He will survive with no problem. Human society … well.
Europe is certainly not prepared for climate change but I have the feeling that the rest of the world might be even further behind.
The planet will be fine don’t worry, it’s mostly us humans that are going to have a problem.
That’s what people mean when they say planet earth, though. It’s referring to the animals, not the non-biological matter.
Well, us and more than billions of other sentinent beings that keep dying and go instinct every year [1][2][3]
Yes, them too of course but others will probably thrive. The planet has been through worse times than these (see: dinosaurs). It’s a big rock and it won’t collapse because we’re fucking with it.
It’s habitability that’s the real problem.
Indeed, the existence of life on Earth as a whole is not threatened by climate change (probably not even humanity). I’d consider it a matter of ethics regarding the life of individuals though.
Humans as a species will be fine. Human civilization and human individuals will be pretty fucked.
