THREAT

Humanity and life on Earth now face a 'direct existential threat'. The world must act swiftly and robustly to avoid utterly catastrophic impacts to life on Earth. Many current life forms could be annihilated or at least committed to extinction by the end of this century. We must act while we still can. What we are seeing now is nothing compared to what could come.
