Science points to the reality that our oceans and atmosphere can no longer tolerate the dumping of greenhouse gasses; and effects to our climatic processes worldwide have begun to turn on our ability to maintain our status quo. We are presently in the midst of a major species extinction event. There are no longer safe limits to GHG emissions. Humanities window to transition to sustainable resource use is brief; due to the fact that the exponential frequency and intensity of Extreme Climate Events are even now creating human tragedies in proportions that interfere with structured efforts to mitigate and adapt. This path leads to chaos without countering humanities use of 1.7 times a sustainable rate of earths resource uses. We have but 25 years to plan and substantially transition to net zero emissions. Despite our best efforts at this point; humanity will still suffer the long term saturation of our atmosphere and oceans with carbon and other GHG for eons before our world normalizes. We have no other option. Reporting these effects must lead to countermeasures to insure the resilience of all life. There is no other home for life on earth. Nowhere to run; nowhere to hide.
