Scientists have a moral obligation to clearly warn humanity of any catastrophic threat and to tell it like it is. On the basis of this obligation and the graphical indicators presented below, we declare, with more than 11,000 scientist signatories from around the world, clearly and unequivocally that planet Earth is facing a climate emergency.

As the Alliance of World Scientists, we stand ready to assist decision-makers in a just transition to a sustainable and equitable future. We urge widespread use of vital signs, which will better allow policymakers, the private sector, and the public to understand the magnitude of this crisis, track progress, and realign priorities for alleviating climate change. The good news is that such transformative change, with social and economic justice for all, promises far greater human well-being than does business as usual. We believe that the prospects will be greatest if decision-makers and all of humanity promptly respond to this warning and declaration of a climate emergency and act to sustain life on planet Earth, our only home.

This is probably the main reason people resist Science. Selfishness.

Our goals need to shift from GDP growth and the pursuit of affluence toward sustaining ecosystems and improving human well-being by prioritizing basic needs and reducing inequality.

Of course capitalists will try to paint this as a hoax that the entire scientific community is in on.

Scientists who are Christians constantly warn people of the impending doom if they don't turn to God for Jesus-salvation help. Jesus will return shortly. But even if it is 10,000 years before He returns, for you it will seem like at your death. One moment you are alive and even kicking. The next you are being called out of the grave by Jesus in the resurrection, possibly faster than you have even realized that you died.

Cool
