In October 2018, the world’s leading scientists, led by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, issued a “final call” on climate change, stating that the world is completely “off track”.
To avert long-term and irreversible harm to our climate will require “rapid, far-reaching and unprecedented changes in all aspects of society”.
According to the report, the world has around 12 years remaining to enact these changes if we want to keep temperature increases to 1.5°. Currently, the world is on course for a worrying rise of 3° by 2030.

Lots of good ideas!
Yes, some are obvious or already well known, but are others that I didn’t know: for example vacuuming the back part of the freezer! 😮 this summer I’ll definitely check on that.
Thank you for passing by! 💚
