| Description | Climate change is the most unjust possible situation that human activity could have created. It is effectively a result of the by-products of what has turned out to be an immensely indulgent lifestyle in a handful of countries. It is likely to cause-and we are already seeing some of these impacts-enormous shifts in how life interacts on the planet, in how ecosystems function, and in how human societies feed, water and warm themselves. A disaster on this scale, with the sorts of resource scarcities, impacts on human security, and confl icts that are likely to emerge, should be classifi ed a crime against humanity and all of life. The most vulnerable and the most affected people are the least responsible for the problem. And those most responsible continue to avoid commitments or real action on climate change.
