Thunberg at COP31: 'The planet is not dying, it is being killed'
At the COP31 climate summit in Antalya, Greta Thunberg accused political leaders of killing the planet, stating it is not dying but being killed by those expected to help. A new report warns of 2.7 degrees Celsius warming. The Climate Action Tracker report says current policies lead to permanent warming above the 1.5-degree Paris target. While renewable energy growth is rapid, global emissions remain at record highs, accelerating climate change. Thunberg criticized leaders for acting detached from reality. Germany is no longer a role model, with recent government decisions potentially slowing the transition to renewables and increasing emissions. The report recommends ending fossil fuel use, cutting methane, and accelerating renewable adoption.
