Only 3 years left – new study warns the world is running out of time to avoid the worst impacts of climate change
Only 3 years left – new study warns the world is running out of time to avoid the worst impacts of climate change
Planet Earth is living on borrowed time, a new global report reveals. The world must stop burning fossil fuels now and take urgent steps to reduce global warming.

So, are we going to organise a general strike to enforce change or should we start preparing for a different climate?
Currently a general strike in the US is planned for May 1st 2028 to coincide with the UAW's contract ending. Unfortunately that's 3 years away, and I doubt climate policy is going to be a focus of that strike.
Hopefully we can organize one sooner, but we'll see. Syndicalist unions independent of corporate control would be the most likely to initiate a general strike, so I'd recommend joining up and unionizing your job with them if you can.

I also hope the rest of the world pushes for their own general strikes.
