Il Rapporto ” Global Climat Wall ” del Transnational Institute

2 Novembre 2021 di editor

Il Transnational Institute (TNI) è un istituto internazionale di ricerca e advocacy impegnato nella costruzione di un mondo giusto, democratico e sostenibile. Per più di 40 anni, TNI ha rappresentato un nesso unico tra movimenti sociali, studiosi impegnati e decisori politici.

Secondo il Rapporto TNI i paesi più ricchi del mondo stanno rispondendo alla crisi climatica militarizzando i propri confini.
Questo rapporto rileva che i maggiori emettitori di gas serra al mondo stanno spendendo, in media, 2,3 volte tanto per armare i loro confini quanto per i finanziamenti per il clima. Questa cifra è fino a 15 volte superiore per i peggiori trasgressori. Questo “muro climatico globale” mira a isolare i paesi potenti dai migranti, piuttosto che affrontare le cause dello sfollamento.

Avec le réchauffement climatique, l’être humain va atteindre ses limites de résistance à la chaleur

Au cours des derniers millénaires, les différentes sociétés humaines ont pu s’appuyer sur une large variété de conditions climatiques pour soutenir leur croissance fulgurante et leurs progrès. Mais aujourd’hui, l’éventail des conditions météorologiques que notre espèce est peu à peu amenée à rencontrer se modifie sous l’effet du réchauffement climatique.

Des conditions entièrement nouvelles pourraient bien apparaître dans les prochaines décennies. Même si les technologies peuvent nous aider, cette menace ne doit pas être prise à la légère, car notre premier système d’adaptation n’est pas mécanique, il est biologique : c’est notre corps – et il a ses limites.
