Watching the film "Breaking Boundaries" right now 😱 🎬

It's a well made summary of the "planetary boundaries" that define a world in which humans can flourish. There are several numerical thresholds, and too many of them have already been crossed. That means we are reaching tipping points, beyond which nobody can really predict that will happen — but obviously nothing good.

It's a netflix documentary, and I don't have netflix, so I'm late to the party. The film is from 2021. Apparently it has not shocked the world into action. No need to tell everybody to watch it then I guess. There's also a book for those who like to read.

Scientists warn that plastics & other pollutants are pushing past a #PlanetaryBoundary, even as #petrochemical comps increase #plastic production. 175 countries have said: ENOUGH. #PlasticsTreaty negotiations underway #INC1. I looked at the data needed to make it stick. @Nature@twitter.com
