Put down whatever you’re doing, take a minute, and read these articles

I know you’re busy, and I’m sorry to interrupt your day, but this is more important than whatever it was that you were doing. The future of life on this earth depends on you reading these articles and then doing something about climate change. I know that sounds hyperbolic–it’s easy to sound alarmist when you’re talking about climate change–but it’s not. We’re entering the only mass extinction since the dinosaurs died off, and we have 2 years to do an about face on climate change. 2 years before, at our current rate, we build all of the plants and factories and energy infrastructure that would lock in 2C of warming.

So read these like the future of life on earth depends on it (It does and I’m not exaggerating):
