How about - y'know - maybe - pretty, please - also think about the folks in the global south who have no money (thank you very much colonial past and continued looting under the guise of IMF/WB) to get air-conditioning? Or maybe... who knows... allow them to migrate to your "cool" countries?

The Caribbean climate justice agenda: activities and opportunities for youth, women, and more – Petchary’s Blog

As the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) wraps up its big conference of Heads of Government in Montego Bay this week, it’s safe to say that the issue of climate change – or should I say, crisis – is very much up there at the top of the agenda. But how to get involved in finding the solutions?

Here are a few things happening. Firstly, please note in your diary that the Caribbean Youth Environment and Climate Change Conference will take place in Kingston from September 10 – 12, 2025. If you wish to attend in person, please RSVP by July 12. You will also be able to participate online. It’s open to all Caribbean Nationals. Limited spots available, so register today and contact them by email for further information. This is a partnership between the Caribbean Youth Climate Council and the Children and Youth Major Group to UNEP.

The theme is: “Securing our Planet for Current and Future Generations.”

Motivation for "A New Faith" < https://tinjar.ghost.io/a-new-faith >

A fair bit of global warming is already baked in even if we manage to quickly bring down future GHG emissions. The effects of climate change are being felt in catastrophic ways in many places around the world. How we adapt to those impacts will be a major preoccupation for the rest of our lives and beyond.
