Earth’s ‘vital signs’ show humanity’s future in balance, say climate experts
Record emissions, temperatures and population mean more scientists are looking into possibility of societal collapse, report says
the Guardian (www.theguardian.com)
Love how they slipped in a little eugenics into their recommendations there, thanks scientists (and the Guardian for reprinting them). This is one of the major issues with Western science, it's so easy for them to slide into eugenics rather than properly center capitalism and white supremacy in their analysis. They even mention taking more from the Earth than it can give as well as highlighting how suffering will hit the global south especially hard but notice how they fail to mention WHO is doing most of the taking

Like, when western folks talk about population reduction, it's always latent in their words which populations they are planning to target for reduction. Just imagine if we started with billionaires and worked our way down the ladder from there, how much more of an impact it would have! Imagine if their vast fortunes and properties were deeded back to the public rather than disseminated to their fucking kids bc they won't be allowed to have them.
Oh, that seems unfair or over the top? Huh. Interesting. But it's okay for poor people. Right.

@tillshadeisgone it's always super awkward how they move near eugenicist talking points like this when, if you take their argument in good faith and look at consumption data, the only demographic change that would actually fix climate change is if all white westerners were no longer.
Like. It's super awkward. That they keep putting the idea in our heads. When a lot of non-colonizers don't even think like that. The saltines are always hustling backwards
