    UN Climate Change Report: A Choice between ‘Mad Max and Hunger Games’0

    • October 15, 2018

    The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) this week released a special report detailing all the ways climate change is predicted to wreak havoc on humans. The report is about 800 pages long, so I’ll offer a summary to save you some time: Global temperatures today are 1.0°C above pre-industrial temperatures. We’re seeing an increase in
