The 9th virtual climate party… Starting with A Climate Declaration (a statement of principles), I’ve become a climate activist who is SERIOUS about saving the habitability of the Earth from the abuses of authorities worldwide — both businessmen and politicians and especially the systems that empower them to commit these…

Isn’t it time we retired the people and systems that have failed catastrophically to protect the planet? Scientists have announced that the dreaded 1.5 degree temperature increase for our Earth is now locked in. We will reach that terrible milestone in 2027. This announcement follows a announcement a few months…

I’m doing a lot. Are they the right things? Is it enough? I’ve been doing many things in an attempt to move the needle, to save the biosphere from the 6th great extinction. This current extinction was triggered by ongoing climate-abusive activities by humans. …
