The Case For Treating Climate Change Like COVID-19

Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, highlights a new study by Context which argues that climate change should be addressed with the same urgency as the COVID-19 pandemic. The study emphasizes that global collaboration and swift action—similar to the vaccine response—could significantly curb climate risks. McIntyre notes the potential for climate-related death rates to rival those of COVID-19 if the crisis continues to be treated with insufficient urgency.
