The use of toxic chemicals is an existential threat to humanity.

Without a ban on these hazardous chemicals, we risk killing all of nature, yet the EU has reversed their plan to ban 12,000 of these toxic forever chemicals due to industry pressure.

Unfortunately, the EU is also dropping the ban on neonicotinoid pesticides and sending thousands of tonnes to low-income countries. Even worse, the UK is allowing the use of these banned chemicals.

We must take action now to protect the planet and our future.

3 million metric tonnes of pesticides are discharged into the environment every year. https://lnkd.in/eCCmwF5G

In 10 to 20 years, most insects (90% or more) on the planet will have been destroyed; this includes pollinators as well as soil biome insects. They are critical for our survival; terrestrial ecology will collapse as well as agriculture. The chemicals used by farmers are going to destroy our food supply. 385 million people fall ill every year from pesticide poisoning; these are mutagenic chemicals whose exposure causes cancer and, in some cases, DNA damage that could be passed down the generations. https://lnkd.in/evh7CpDp

I fail to understand why we continue to allow the use of toxic chemicals. Does the industry not know that it is poor business sense to kill your customers? Have they not heard of ecocide? Is the government so weak that it cannot stand up to industry? There is something very wrong here.

I call on the financial sector to get their act together and start exerting their influence over finance and insurance for polluting industries. The KPMG/MMIT study showed a decline until 2030, followed by a possible societal collapse by 2040.

We already know marine life is going to collapse between 2035 and 2045 due to ocean acidification, pollution, microplastics, and partially combusted carbon combined with toxic forever chemicals, and we know these chemicals become even more dispersed over land in rainfall. Terrestrial ecosystems will collapse at the same time. Every living organism on the planet contains toxic forever chemicals and molecular plastic, and its only going to get worse.,

The evidence is all there; how do we ban these chemicals? If this task cannot be achieved, then I cannot see a way forward for Nature and Humanity.

Climate change is going to happen, and it will be ugly. Regardless of what the media reports, it cannot be stopped. We will have climate change between at least 2 °C and 3.5 °C; this is the scientific consensus.

So let’s park climate change and carbon mitigation and deal with a more pressing issue: the destruction of terrestrial and marine ecosystems and the loss of nature on land and marine life in the Oceans.

Most people now live a life insulated from nature, don’t think it really matters, or don’t appreciate or understand the importance of life on earth. In order for the planet to be sustainable, humanity must be in balance with the rest of nature. Over the last 70 years, this has definitely not been the case; we have destroyed ecosystems, employed destructive farming and fishing, and now we are poisoning everything with toxic chemicals, plastic, and partially combusted carbon.

We will survive climate change, but we will not survive the annihilation of nature and the life support system for the planet. If we had not destroyed marine life and 50% of terrestrial ecology, then we would not have climate change because of the carbon sequestration by nature.

Even if you eliminated man from the planet, the earth would not be okay because the toxic legacy would continue to destroy nature on land and in marine life for hundreds of years. Carbon tunnel vision is going to kill the planet; we must start eliminating toxicity and pollution to regenerate ecosystems and bring back nature. Humanity is part of nature, and without it, we cannot survive.

We have no more than 10 years to make the planet a non-toxic habitat, or it will be too late to stop the total destruction of nature over the next 20 years. This is the best chance of survival and also to stop climate change: place your trust in Nature unless you wish to place your trust in chemical or oil companies and an invention to suck carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere.

Marine life in the North Atlantic may collapse this year.
