The road to #Fascism is paved by people telling you to stop overreacting (that's not a Bradbury quote but a fundamental Truth of our time). Many of us called out every step of the path, so many more just lazily sniffed that they "don't pay attention to politics" #Fahrenheit451 #RayBradbury #America
This quote serves equally well for #Fascism as it does #ClimateChange and indeed so much else. It's well past time we got serious and a great many of us, our leadership most of all, remain as frivolous, under-informed & drastically unsuited to the challenge as we've ever been. #ClimateSky

According to the UN’s latest report, the world just reached a new era of water bankruptcy – meaning the planet is using more fresh water than nature can reliably replace, causing damage to natural resources like aquifers and wetlands that’s difficult to reverse.
The world is in water bankruptcy, UN scientists report – here’s what that means
Like living beyond your financial means, using more water than nature can replenish can have catastrophic results.
