Humanity faces collective suicide over climate crisis, warns UN chief.

 Wildfires and heatwaves wreaking havoc across swathes of the globe show
humanity facing “collective suicide”, the UN secretary general has
warned, as governments around the world scramble to protect people from the
impacts of extreme heat.

António Guterres told ministers from 40 countries
meeting to discuss the climate crisis on Monday: “Half of humanity is in
the danger zone, from floods, droughts, extreme storms and wildfires. No
nation is immune. Yet we continue to feed our fossil fuel addiction.” He
added:

“We have a choice. Collective action or collective suicide. It is
in our hands.”
