CLIMATE INEQUALITY - By Jennifer Chua @chuabone⠀

CLIMATE INEQUALITY - By Jennifer Chua @chuabone⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
--------------------------⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As the forest fires rage on again in California, I can’t help but think that the consequences of climate change have vastly different impacts on our lives.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As someone who grew up in a third world country, I know that while we all play a role in destroying the planet, the poor are the ones who lose the most.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We may all be experiencing natural calamities but we’re not all in the same boat.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This illustration depicts that when calamity strikes, the wealthy can cling on to their multiple houses and their gated communities, while the economically disenfranchised are the ones who lose everything. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

🌍🌡 Yep, there isn't enough talk about climate. Or maybe there is enough but it is not sinking into everyone's mind. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
That's is why the world is celebrating #ClimateWeek2020 THIS WEEK. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Expect more topics on environmental issues. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
An opportunity to go deeper into the knowledge, the science, the numbers, the worst-case-scenario but also the hopes, the solutions, the people working and fighting for a future where we can still be outside, breathe fresh air and resist sun rays. A world where wild animals roam free and are not driven to extinction. A world where citizens don't need to leave their homes because water and nutritious soil are long gone in their community.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Let's dive in together. Shall we?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

This week, I'm pondering: DO I HAVE ECOLOGICAL GRI

This week, I'm pondering: DO I HAVE ECOLOGICAL GRIEF? #LetterFromTheEditor by Green Queen Sonalie Figueiras.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The constant climate crisis news cycle is getting to me. Lately I will be going about my day and suddenly feel unexplainably angry, with overwhelming feelings of "how can we be doing this?". Not to mention that I feel guilty all the time: how can I lessen my waste more? Could my choices be more conscious? And then at night, before I go to sleep, I feel hopeless and confused: what more can I do? How to move the dial? How to get others to care? It's been a few years that I've had these feelings if I am honest. But it's only recently that I realised that these feelings have a name. I've been reading up on ecological grief and pardon for the self-diagnosis but I am pretty sure I have it. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Turns out, I am not alone. People all over the world are experiencing everything from eco-anxiety to imminania, a term that describes the powerful feeling of sorrow for what is to happen in the future. Read more about this in Isaias Hernandez's excellent post here @queerbrownvegan. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I have been researching ways to combat my symptoms and feelings. And what I have found fascinating is that one of the reasons we are having trouble dealing with all of this is that we have forgotten/dismissed indigenous wisdom and traditional belief systems that for hundreds of years helped to define and determine our relationship to nature. On Saturday, I watched an incredible film about a man and the octopus he befriends (scroll down for my thoughts about it) and I felt sure to my core that the cure for my grief lies in connecting further and deeper with the natural world. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

NEARLY 60% OF THE AMERICAN PUBLIC ARE NOW TRANSITIONING TO A FLEXITARIAN OR PLANT-BASED DIET⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
60%⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The research also found that over half of Americans are now consuming fewer animal products since the coronavirus pandemic began. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Health was the top reason cited for making the shift towards a more flexitarian, semi-vegetarian or plant-based diet.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
According to the analysts, the results dispels the idea that plant-based alternatives today are not widely available or not as tasty, representing the significant progress that plant-based food techs have made in recent years.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For those of you who recently made the switch or thinking about reducing animal products, what made you question your choices? Why this year? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

BE THE CHANGE⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ By Jennif

BE THE CHANGE⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
By Jennifer Chua @chuabone⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
--------------------------⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This week’s illustration is about being an inspiration to people. I’ve gotten a lot of feedback from my friends about how they’ve tried to make changes towards a more sustainable lifestyle because they were inspired by the efforts that I've put in. The illustration depicts three different scenarios where we can apply a waste-free lifestyle. The first is a lady bringing her own food container for a takeaway, and as she moves on to the bulk store and the 2nd hand clothes shop, more people join her. The idea is to show the influence that we can have when we try to be better. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

This week, I'm pondering: CAN WE PICK JUST ONE THING?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
#LetterFromTheEditor by Green Queen Sonalie Figueiras.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This past week has been an all time low for the climate change movement globally. We've got sir David Attenborough telling us we we're at an irreversible point when it comes to species extinction at the same time as a new report alerts us that the current extinction levels are unprecedented. Another thing that's unprecedented? The wildfires ravaging the U.S. North West in what climate scientists are sounding the warning bell over and over with rising death tolls and overwhelmed fire services and hospitals, not to mention hundreds of thousands of evacuees. In the UK, the government wants to classify the controversial climate crisis protest group Extinction Rebellion (there's that pesky extinction word again) as an organised crime organisation. Here in Hong Kong, it's 32 degrees in mid September.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Remember all the climate change consequences we've been banging on about? They're here. It's not as if we are talking about some far away risk that we humans can't assess in our daily life. Everything is going wrong NOW. Our beaches are filthy with waste. Our food systems are ravaged by disease and toxins. Our landfills are overflowing with clothes we didn't need. Our oceans are drowning in forever plastic. Our air is poisoning us with decades of harmful emissions from too much travel, too much meat, too much energy. Our lifestyles are threatened by pandemics- like the one we're currently living through, that has just brought most of the world to a standstill. Our livelihoods are at risk due to extreme weather becoming commonplace. Our children's safe futures are hard to imagine...⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
