OK, We'll Kill Off All The Large Herbivores then, Shall We?

It's lucky Barbados doesn't have the sweeping herds of the Serengetti, so tourism won't be as affected, eh, Mia?

As temperatures continue to rise – including in the oceans, where the extra heat fuels more powerful hurricanes – far greater catastrophes lie ahead as feedback loops push the planet past irreversible tipping points.We have already passed our first tipping point, the progressive loss of warm-water coral reefs, on which nearly a billion people and a quarter of marine life depend; a development particularly relevant to island countries like Barbados.

We are on the brink of several more, including the death of the Amazon rainforest...

Which is actually in more danger from climate shindigs, isn't it? 

Cutting methane emissions is the fastest and simplest way to slow near-term warming and prevent triggering more tipping points.

A legally binding methane agreement for the oil and gas sector can prevent energy waste, while buying time over the next 15 to 20 years to build resilience as research to scale up decarbonising technologies to commercial level builds pace. This will give countries in the south with oil and gas assets the opportunity to use the one thing that can finance their way to net zero.

Net Zero is a fantasy, Mia, nothing we humans down here can do, when climate is driven by that giant ball of burning hydrogen in the sky.
