Rising seas threaten ‘mass exodus on a biblical scale’, UN chief warns
António Guterres calls for urgent action as climate-driven rise brings ‘torrent of trouble’ to almost a billion people

An increase in the pace at which sea levels are rising threatens “a mass exodus of entire populations on a biblical scale”, the UN secretary general has warned.

The climate crisis is causing sea levels to rise faster than for 3,000 years, bringing a “torrent of trouble” to almost a billion people, from London to Los Angeles and Bangkok to Buenos Aires, António Guterres said on Tuesday. Some nations could cease to exist, drowned under the waves, he said.

Addressing the UN security council, Guterres said slashing carbon emissions, addressing problems such as poverty that worsen the impact of the rising seas on communities and developing new international laws to protect those made homeless – and even stateless – were all needed. He said sea level rise was a threat-multiplier which, by damaging lives, economies and infrastructure, had “dramatic implications” for global peace and security.

Significant sea level rise is already inevitable with current levels of global heating, but the consequences of failing to tackle the problem are “unthinkable”. Guterres said: “Low-lying communities and entire countries could disappear for ever. We would witness a mass exodus of entire populations on a biblical scale. And we would see ever fiercer competition for fresh water, land and other resources.

“People’s human rights do not disappear because their homes do,” he said. “Yes, this means international refugee law.”

The International Law Commission is assessing the legal situation. In 2020, the UN human rights committee ruled that ​​it was unlawful for governments to return people to countries where their lives might be threatened by the climate crisis.

Which of the world's most guilty heavy-polluting countries will be first to abandon international law, do you think ?

Not when it comes to the human rights of Muslims, no. Their treatment of Chinese Muslims appears to be as bad as the Neo-Zionist Jews' treatment of Palestinian Muslims- backed by the United States.

So we can safely say that China has no respect for international law, the US has no respect for international law, the UK has no respect for international law ( it has ethnically-cleansed the Chagossians and defied the UN ) , the Russians have no respect for international law ( invasion is illegal ) - and that just leaves the French among the permanent members of the executors of international law, the Security Council.

So, four-fifths of the executors of international law do not uphold it. Maybe the French don't either.

Fucked up world or what ?

Yes, profiteers. The chemical industries, the fossil fuel industries etc. have sacrificed us- and their own planet- for material wealth.

They are protected by the laws which are made by the governments that they have in their pockets. Otherwise we could just off them all and share out their estates and yachts.



Haw, haw....................................haw.

Governument and leftist ideology. A bigger and bigger govt is a greater and greater danger to individual freedom. Those freedoms are being eroded and people are applauding it and seemingly in some cases demanding it. Leftists ideology itself isn't the problem it's the reactionary nature of it that troubles.me most of all. People see a problem, conclude the cause is X and once that's decided very little will get them to even consider they may not be right let alone change their minds. Both those things have really fucked us up.
