The facts: 86% of trans youth report s*cidal ideation and 56% have attempted to end their lives. Anti trans laws increase attempts by ~72%. <1% report regretting GAC.

An infographic showing the progression from underlying causes to environmental impacts across terrestrial, freshwater, and marine ecosystems. The diagram flows left to right through three main sections: "UNDERLYING CAUSES" lists three core issues: Disconnection from and domination over nature and people Concentration of power and wealth Prioritization of short-term, individual and material gains "INDIRECT DRIVERS" includes four categories: Demographic and sociocultural Economic and technological Institutions and governance Conflicts and epidemics "DIRECT DRIVERS" shows relative impact percentages across terrestrial, freshwater, and marine environments, represented by horizontal bars with color-coded segments for: Land/sea use change (purple) Direct exploitation (light purple) Climate change (yellow) Pollution (gray) Invasive alien species (orange) Others (light gray) The right side features a circular illustration divided into terrestrial, freshwater, and marine zones with representative wildlife silhouettes.
🌏 Biodiversity loss has deep-rooted causes—from power imbalances to short-term priorities. These shape indirect & direct drivers like land/sea use change, exploitation & climate change.

A paper in Nature suggests a quarter of heatwave events from 2000-23 would have been near impossible without anthropogenic climate change. The paper also indicates that major carbon emitters are responsible for around 50% of the increase in intensity of these events. ⚒️ 🧪
