“The Earth is not dying, it is being killed*, and those who are killing it have names and addresses.” ~Utah Phillips

* Yes, the rock we call Earth will be just fine. The ability of Earth to continue supporting complex organisms, however, is being destroyed by the oligarchs for profit and greed. The deaths from climate change related floods, fires, heat waves and droughts are not due to "catastrophes", or "disasters" they are calculated, premeditated murders for money.

The International Court of Climate Justice will be armed with improvised weapons

The International Court of Climate Justice will be armed with improvised weapons. They will carry rusty machetes, fashioned from twisted sections of I-beam, grips wrapped in soft plastic and electrical tape. They will hold in their hands spears made from broom handles and broken glass bottles as they pass judgments from the top of cracked, crooked multi-level parking lots.

It's good to have hope though even during the darkest times. My hometown is getting hit very hard by climate change to the point we've part of the "drought belt." People still persist and the communities have come much closer as a result. Way less tolerance for hoarding than before and people caught doing it are punished pretty harshly. Our hope is more revolved around the community rising above everything and making this hellworld somehow work.
