Not Satire: “Climate Crisis Could Cause ‘Catastrophic Harm’ to Human Health, 200-Plus Medical Journals Warn,” World Health Organization Should Declare Global Health Emergency

Mmm hmm.

Via: CBC:

More than 200 medical journals are calling on the World Health Organization to deem two overlapping environmental crises — climate change and biodiversity loss — as a global health emergency, while warning of the potential for “catastrophic harm” to human health.

“The climate crisis and loss of biodiversity both damage human health, and they are interlinked,” said lead author Kamran Abbasi, editor in chief of the British Medical Journal, in a statement.

“That’s why we must consider them together and declare a global health emergency. It makes no sense for climate and nature scientists and politicians to consider the health and nature crises in separate silos.”

    For every emergency that is declared, will we get a separate set of restrictions forced on us? Will it become a situation in which, whatever you do or don’t do, you’re breaking some rule or law? Sounds like the stuff of comedy to me, except that it’s not funny.

    200 *medical* journals. So they don’t publish anything related to climate change or biodiversity yet they call for an emergency based on both. Is there any doubt that all those medical journals are completely corrupt?
