Oh, just to add to the below, up to 70% of honeybees in the US have mysteriously died in the past few months, decimating the honey industry & - if the deaths continue at this rate - the US’s ability to produce enough food.

Parents, the Earth’s not been this warm in 120,000 years, we’ve breached the Paris Agreement’s β€˜safe’ limit of 1.5C, we’re on track for 3C within decades & climate scientists are warning of near term societal collapse
