More than 250 scientists call for Australian leaders to act on climate change | "It is important to realize that only through reducing "total" greenhouse gas emissions can climate change and its impacts be addressed. Australia has near-to the highest GHG emissions per person of any country."

This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 67%. (I'm a bot)


> More than 250 active scientists with expertise in climate, fire and meteorology have signed a statement that calls on our leaders to urgently reduce Australia's greenhouse gas emissions and engage constructively in international agreements to reduce total global emissions to net-zero by 2050.

> Importantly, the statement brings together peer-reviewed literature that outlines the strong scientific links between Australia's worsening bushfire seasons and climate change.

> "In many ways, this letter is the product of despair as scientists witnessed the deadly fire season unfold. Scientists have been warning policymakers for decades that climate change would worsen Australia's fire risk, and yet those warnings have been ignored," said Australian National University climate scientist Professor Nerilie Abram.

> The increase in fires is just one part of a deadly equation that suggests the impacts of climate change are coming faster, stronger and more regularly.

> "It's important to remember that what we are seeing now are the dangerous and costly impacts of just 1°C of global warming. Yet while our climate changes rapidly, Australia's climate change policies stand still and the world is on track for 3°C or more of warming by the end of this century."

Top Countries by Greenhouse Gas Emissions (or COβ‚‚) from 1960-2018 (In Millions of tonnes of COβ‚‚ equivalent)

Link - https://youtu.be/8O10HCv5sYc

These countries have had the highest green house or carbon dioxide emissions since 1960. To no surprise, many of the top economies or countries are producing highest levels of Greenhouse gases and they are producers of either oil, coal or natural gas. These do not only includes COβ‚‚ emissions but others gases too.

Keeping the environment clean and healthy is only & only our responsibility.
