The Healthy Planet Action Coalition’s Case for Urgent Direct Climate Cooling
The Healthy Planet Action Coalition is an international organization that advocates for an urgent and more ambitious global response to climate change.
It’s objective is a climate restoration plan that will limit global warming to below 1° C. The target needed to protect coral reefs, the canaries in the ocean’s proverbial coalmine. Fifty percent of the world’ coral have been killed in the past 30 years by bleaching brought on by a small temperature increment of their environment. And which are expected to be decimated by at least ninety percent by the end of the century on the current climate pathway.
The following video sets out HPAC’s plan. And explains how direct climate cooling is quicker, more effective and less costly than the IPCC’s plan for climate mitigation that relies on a sharp reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.
