WE INVEST IN CONTINUITY AND VALUE

The important goal of limiting the warming to 1.5 ° means that we only have about 7 years left. At 1.5°, for example, only one third of all coral reefs will survive. At 2°, 99% of the world's coral reefs would die.But already at 2 degrees the climate will collapse due to the exceeded tipping points. This means that the following unstoppable chain reactions occur. • Melting of the summer Arctic sea ice, the Greenland ice sheet, the West Antarctic ice sheet and shrinking of the Tibetan glaciers • Methane and carbon dioxide emissions from permafrost ground (methane is 23 times more aggressive than CO²) and methane outgassing from the oceans and other methane hydrate deposits • Collapse of the Indian summer monsoon • Changes in the West African monsoon system with effects on the Sahara and Sahel with deforestation of the tropical rainforest • Destruction of boreal forests • Drying-up of the North American Southwest • Further drastic dying of coral reefs • Destabilization of the jet stream with subsequent heavy floods and droughts • Decline of the biosphere, i.e. the ability to bind the greenhouse gas CO². Only drastic measures in the reduction of CO² and the immediate planting of billions of trees can reduce this threat. The people and companies in the rich western countries have put the most emission into the atmosphere and we have a lot to lose! Health, living environment and nature will be destroyed and our assets will erode. Billions of people will lose their home due to climate change and they will need a new home. The last wave of Refugees has already shattered Europe. Everyone can imagine what will happen if not only a few million but billions of people need a new home.

At the same time, we can create millions of jobs and prosperity worldwide by expanding renewable energies. Germany is one of the technology suppliers for the solar power plants in Morocco. All the people in the rich countries have created the climate catastrophe. Young people are rightly demanding a change in the way we think and act regarding our environment. We are all responsible for immediate change. Current policies will not support us in making these necessary changes; they follow yesterday's objectives and are guided by the interests of the carbon industry.

This obligation implies: 1. Restore native forests 2. Provide food for people, shelter for wildlife, shade, medicines, soil regeneration and climate regulation through a village-wide tree-planting program 3. Help people out of extreme poverty
