At first glance, 2 or 3 degrees does not seem like much. After all, we have 10 degree variations from week to week...

But instead, imagine that your body temperature goes up from 37°C to 40°C. Then 41 ...

A world in a chronic state of high fever is what is at stake. And it won't be only for others.

IPCC tells us that above 2 degrees, global food security is threatened.

IPCC reports and the most recent studies also warn us that above 2 degrees, tipping points may cause warming to become uncontrollable.

In the mean time, the 6th mass extinction, not caused by climate change but by human activity, is likely to have begun and already threatens 10% of species in the short run.

The international community is starting to react, but the current plans are vastly insufficient.

There is too much inertia, too much diverging interests, and not enough real awareness.

We invite you to join us and those who engage in this battle !

They are many ways to act.

You should chose what feels right for you.

Here are a few ideas.
