Geneva (AFP) – Climate change threatens to deliver a "truly terrifying" dystopian future of hunger and suffering, the United Nations' human rights chief warned Monday.
Volker Turk slammed world leaders for only thinking of the short term while dealing with the climate crisis.
Turk told a UN Human Rights Council debate on the right to food that extreme weather events were wiping out crops, herds and ecosystems, making it impossible for communities to rebuild and support themselves.
"More than 828 million people faced hunger in 2021. And climate change is projected to place up to 80 million more people at risk of hunger by the middle of this century," said Turk.
"Our environment is burning. It's melting. It's flooding. It's depleting. It's drying. It's dying," he said, evoking a "dystopian future".
"Addressing climate change is a human rights issue... there is still time to act. But that time is now," he said.

Chicken littles are everywhere.

The “Climate Change” HOAX is ONLY TO CONTROL US IN EVERYTHING WE DO AND HAVE!! EVERYTHING!!
And it’s all fake.
Isn't it the Dutch government that is wiping out the farms and farmers while the Irish government that is killing off 200,000 cattle? Why blame nature when certain governments are beginning to starve the people out?
Fixed it.
These are the skunks behind geo-engineering and all the bad policy that is manufacturing starvation and all the misery in order to take control.
Think how much better our planet would be with these types no longer around.
Yes! They create the problem and claim they are the only ones who can fix it but in order to do that people must die.
They always complain about the weather and how awful it is. But never any solutions but electric cars and solar panels.
And your government is hard at work trying to make that dystopia come true.
Eet zee bugs, serf.
:: in order to do that people must die. ::
And any survivors must pay higher taxes to be spared the same fate.
Converting precious farm lands into solar farms...is absolutely stupid....and that’s here in NYS.
The climate cultist like to lay the BS on layers deep.
If all these idiots dropped dead there’d be tens of thousands of acres to plant food and raise cattle after solar farms are torn down, happy whales and birds when wind farms torn down, plenty of fuel for my vehicles and a lot more money NOT spent on stupidity.
Our present trajectory is lining us up for a jackpot all right, not because of global climate change. Oh, no. Ironically it's being forced upon us by the climate catastrophists whose insane anti-energy policies are crippling western cultures and economies.
And we certainly have our share and more of criminal oligarchies ready to step in, don't we?
To do WHAT?
Unless you shut down the global economy, including China and India, there's nothing that can be done. However, doing so would endanger many peoples' lives--millions would die.
The problem with your Anthropogenic Global Warming (AGW) theory is people. There are too many.
Killing people would be genocide.
If somebody has to die, why not start with you and the believers of your AGW theory?
“It’s not we, your overlords, making you miserable! It’s that terrifying Climate Change!!! Which, you should know, you’re responsible for!!!”
