Latest #UnitedInScience report shows climate impacts heading into uncharted territories of destruction.
Yet each year we double-down on our fossil fuel addiction.
I urge leaders to heed the facts of this report & turn pledges into #ClimateAction.

Without much more ambitious action, the impacts of #ClimateChange will be increasingly devastating.
