Edition 3: August 2021
Welcome Back,
Thanks for tuning back into Climate People's monthly newsletter, Driven By Impact! We're assuming you saw the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report released earlier this month? It was chock-full of inauspicious stats about our inherent reality here on Earth if we don’t cut emissions.
The IPCC blatantly stated that humans are causing climate change, the first line of the report read: “It is unequivocal that human influence has warmed the atmosphere, ocean, and land."
The time is now, we must act urgently to mitigate these irreversible harms before it’s too late. Want to join Climate People in being part of the solution? Read on.
