One of the Greatest Crimes of our Generation

The United States with 4% of the world’s population is contributing to the collapse of our entire planet’s ecosystem – with 13% of the global carbon dioxide emissions.
Coral is the nursery for fish. Coral is dying because of warming oceans. We are warming the planet faster than it can adapt. People will starve.
”As the largest traded food commodity in the world, seafood provides sustenance to billions of people worldwide. More than 3 billion people in the world rely on wild-caught and farmed seafood as a significant source of animal protein.” WWF
Our world is burning. Our oceans are dying. We are killing our food systems. We are committing global suicide.
But the “King” wants to expand fossil fuel use – to bring back coal. To “drill baby, drill”. Doesn’t that sound like a crime against humanity, a crime against the planet?

Coral reefs are as important as rain forests.
“More than 50% of all species on Earth are found under the ocean. Scientists at NOAA estimate that the ocean produces 50-80% of the world’s oxygen and absorbs 50 times more carbon dioxide than the atmosphere. The ocean helps sustain human life.”
“Coral reefs are structures created by coral animals and are among the most biologically diverse ecosystems on the planet. They provide goods and services worth at least US$11.9 trillion per year and support (through such activities as fisheries and tourism) at least 500 million people worldwide.”

Of all the obscenities perpetrated by the MAGA maniacs, this competes to be the most dramatic and horrible. When coral dies, fish populations shrink or vanish. People suffer for lack of protein. But so do all manner of birds, fish and other aquatic life. The food chain is disrupted – destroyed. The US has been complicit along with most of the world. This issue is established science. It is not a matter of opinion.
Now our government led by a “mad king” wants to make it much worse. These are the actions of the criminally insane.
