Der neue #PlanetaryHealthCheck des PIK zeigt: 7 von 9 planetaren Belastungsgrenzen sind überschritten, darunter die alarmierende Ozean-Versauerung 🌍💔. Die Erde gerät massiv unter Druck, doch es gibt Hoffnung auf Umkehr. 🌿⚠️ #Klimawandel #Umweltschutz #OzeanVersauerung

“Naïve Optimism vs Reality: The True State of Our Planet and Energy Future” by Art Berman

https://www.artberman.com/blog/naive-optimism-vs-reality-the-true-state-of-our-planet-and-energy-future/

«Last week, I spent time with oil CEOs who understood the complex environmental issues tied to energy but still believed everything would work out for humanity. Technology will fix most of the world’s problems, and progress will take care of the rest.

Yesterday, the International Energy Agency offered a similarly optimistic take from the renewable energy side. Its latest report claims that a booming clean energy market will drive economic growth, create jobs, and bring sustainability. They argue this shift will boost energy security and reduce fossil fuel reliance—despite the steep challenges and the need for massive policy shifts worldwide.

Both views carry a kind of naïve optimism, assuming that the system will self-correct despite clear evidence to the contrary. This human-centered thinking assumes that what’s good for us is good for the planet, but the reality couldn’t be more different. The evidence shows that this false belief is steering us and living systems in the wrong direction.»

Climate is just one of the limits, and each of them is potentially catastrophic for all life, not just human life.
