The Guardian, July 29, 2021. This article has more to it than a sensationalist headline – and it certainly has that. It details a conclusion drawn by a number of public health studies: “that for every 4,434 metric tons of CO2 produced, one person globally will die.” Putting the mind-catching headline aside, the article actually provides an intuitively meaningful gauge for evaluating the consequences of our personnel actions/choices on the climate crisis in terms of their ultimate price. It tells us the cost in human lives paid by our individual – and community – decisions regarding the kind of vehicles we drive, the means we use to heat our homes, and the goods that we consume. Should we visualize this cost in terms of human faces we have seen, it can only make our daily choices and actions more mindful and informed. [ARTICLE LINK]
