You felt this summer. Across the world it was felt.
The heat that didn’t break. The grass that turned to straw then dust. The rivers running low. Heatwaves killing thousands of people.
It will get worse. Not might. Will. Every year temperatures will rise and more people will die.
Last year the truth came out. The British insurance industry produced a report on the climate crisis, predicting at least 4 billion deaths at 3C of global warming - possible by mid century.
4 billion. Half the Earth’s population. Dead.
Sit with that number for a moment. There are no words.
We are not here to persuade you. We are here to say we need face this together. To ask what a life of integrity looks like knowing what we now know.
A new social movement is starting, set up by people who have run the biggest UK campaigns of the past decade. If you are feeling disillusioned with societies ability to deal with a future that is now locked in to some degree, then come to along to the next 4 Billion Dead International Public Call. Come and hear how a group of people are attempting to foster a culture that is just a little bit different.
