That is subjective to many other factors. The IPCC report in 2021 showed we have a carbon budget of about 400 GT globally and beyond that, there is no doubt we will begin to experience the worst of the worst impacts of the climate crisis. We have two options as humanity, either we take a proactive disposition or reactive one. The former being having to wait until we are hit even harder by the climate crisis or take the latter option, which is to declare Climate Emergency early enough so we could avoid going into the worst stage of the crisis. Science had clearly shown that the global emissions are steadily on the rise and our current efforts are inadequate and slow decision making might cost us even more. The climate crisis is already being experienced, for Africa it's even worse....

@FrankAkufuna No. The IPCC report shows specifically that there is no evidence of man-made global climate change in the whole range of areas listed in chapter 12. The UN's IPCC AR6 report, chapter 11 'Weather and Climate Extreme Events in a Changing Climate' summarises the fact that certain severe weather events cannot be detected as increasing, nor attributed to human caused climate change: Pages 1761 - 1765, Table 11.A.2 Synthesis table summarising assessments Heavy Precipitation: 24 out of 45 global regions low confidence in observed trend (12 medium confidence, so 50-50, toss a coin), 43 out 45 low confidence in human attribution. Agricultural Drought: 31 out of 45 global regions low confidence in observed trend (14 medium confidence, so 50-50. No high confidence assessment). 42 out 45 low confidence in human attribution (3 medium, no high confidence). Ecological Drought as above. Hydrological Drought: 38 out of 45 global regions low confidence in observed trend. 43 out 45 low confidence in human attribution (2 medium confidence, no high confidence). So the IPCC are saying we didn't cause droughts and we didn't make it rain. How surprising! There is no objective observational evidence that we are living in a global climate crisis.

@FrankAkufuna Try another chapter? The UN's IPCC AR6 report, chapter 11 'Weather and Climate Extreme Events in a Changing Climate' summarises the fact that certain severe weather events cannot be detected as increasing, nor attributed to human caused climate change: Pages 1761 - 1765, Table 11.A.2 Synthesis table summarising assessments Heavy Precipitation: 24 out of 45 global regions low confidence in observed trend (12 medium confidence, so 50-50, toss a coin), 43 out 45 low confidence in human attribution.

No high confidence assessment). 42 out 45 low confidence in human attribution (3 medium, no high confidence). Ecological Drought as above. Hydrological Drought: 38 out of 45 global regions low confidence in observed trend. 43 out 45 low confidence in human attribution (2 medium confidence, no high confidence). So the IPCC are saying we didn't cause droughts and we didn't make it rain. How surprising! There is no objective observational evidence that we are living in a global climate crisis.

@FrankAkufuna How about some quotes from AR6: "There is low confidence in the emergence of heavy precipitation and pluvial and river flood frequency in observations, despite trends that have been found in a few regions." "There is low confidence in the emergence of drought frequency in observations, for any type of drought, in all regions." "Observed mean surface wind speed trends are present in many areas, but the emergence of these trends from the interannual natural variability and their attribution to human-induced climate change remains of low confidence due to various factors such as changes in the type and exposure of recording instruments, and their relation to climate change is not established. . . The same limitation also holds for wind extremes (severe storms, tropical cyclones, sand and dust storms)." There is no objective observational evidence that we are living through a global climate crisis. None.

Thank you leader, let us make Zambia a better place

In sesotho or tswana is dress

Yes we did have one

Thank you, it is over a year now

@@FrankAkufuna oh yeah. Time moves fast.
