1/14. 📜Powerful new report to the #UN General Assembly by the @SRClimateChange Ian Fry makes crystal clear that #LossAndDamage from #ClimateChange is causing a litany of #HumanRights impacts. 🧵 
2/14. In its introduction, the report highlights the inequality at the heart of the #ClimateCrisis: "50% of countries are responsible for 86 % of the cumulative global CO2 emissions", #AtmosphericColonization, and why #ClimateReparations are being demanded for #LossAndDamage.
3/14. Chapter three "#LossAndDamage: a litany of #HumanRights impacts" starts by highlighting that from a #HumanRights perspective #LossAndDamage is "closely related to the right to remedy and the principle of #Reparations".

Hotter temperatures are associated with changes in behavior such as increases in violence, aggression, & impulsivity. #ClimateChange is increasing temperatures & it is predicted that we will see more violence & conflict as #HeatWaves increase. 2/9

THREAD: Are you ready for this week’s heat? Are you ready for it to be the norm? Check out how this week’s forecast stacks up against this century’s #ExtremeHeat projection for your town and learn what’s at stake without climate action with our heat tool: act.ucsusa.org/HeatTool
According to our new study, #KillerHeat is only going to get worse. We are projecting how the heat index, or “feels like” temperature, will likely change in your town by the middle of the century with no action to reduce global warming emissions. ucsusa.org/KillerHeat
By late century, our #KillerHeat report projects that with no action, some areas will endure four months a year when the “feels like” temp will exceed 105°F. BUT, rapid bold action can drastically curb these extreme heat days. #ActOnClimate
