Alarming Facts about Climate Change that You Should Know About!

• The current rate of species extinction is 10,000 times the normal rate, with dozens of species going extinct every day.
• This loss of biodiversity reduces water quality, food security, and natural pest control, and results in the loss of natural habitats.

• Climate change is displacing millions of people, with up to 200 million people expected to be displaced by 2050.
• The International Organisation on Migration estimates that climate change is making climate change refugees of the world's poorest populations.

• The Thwaites Glacier in Antarctica, ominously nicknamed the "doomsday glacier," is melting rapidly in unexpected ways.
• Satellite data shows the glacier's ice shelf, which previously acted as a protective barrier, is now receding at an alarming rate, exposing more ice to the warming ocean and accelerating the melting process.
• The melting of Thwaites Glacier alone could raise global sea levels by up to 2 feet (0.6 meters), threatening coastal communities around the world.

• The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) warns that without immediate and deep emissions reductions, the world's climate goals will soon slip out of reach.
• The window of time to prevent the worst impacts of climate change is closing quickly, and reducing emissions by 45% by 2030 is crucial to limiting global warming to 1.5°C.

Once the tipping point is touched, Earth's temperature will rise by 2 degrees Celsius, starting a series of dangerous global disasters.
