Widely broadcasted recent reports from IPCC, state that the sea level will rise by almost 60 cm by 2100.
Dramatic as it may seem (and it is, unquestionably), this information does not impose itself on people’s daily behaviors. Quite the opposite actually – it may in fact help people feel less guilty about doing nothing! People are more worried about facing the crises today, keeping their jobs tomorrow, than….let’s face it…anything that will eventually happen by 2100.
In the following video, Al Gore says: ‘What is needed is a sense of urgency!’
That’s exactly what the ICE CARE project tries to accomplish.
To show climate change happening NOW!
The effects TODAY and the IMEDIATE consequences!
It is possible to SEE climate change happening in REAL-TIME! That’s what we want to show. That’s what we expect everyone to understand – it is not a problem for our kids to solve and that will affect only them – the problem is real and it’s happening now!
At a recent presentation for doctors at one of HPP Saúde hospitals, when I showed the images of Kilimanjaro in 1993 compared with 2000, someone from the assistance said: ‘You should go in May!’ That’s exactly the ‘sense of urgency’ we are trying to accomplish.
Thank you Francisco Monjardino for the video!
