From the Everglades in the US to the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, climate change is destroying the many of the greatest wonders of the natural world.

A new report on Monday from the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) reveals that the number of natural world heritage sites being damaged and at risk from global warming has almost doubled to 62 in the past three years.

Those at high risk include iconic places from the Galapagos Islands to the central Amazon and less well known but equally vibrant and unique sites such as the karst caves of Hungary and Slovakia and the monarch butterfly reserves in Mexico.

Why is this so difficult. Raise our taxes that should solve the problem. Global warming will see the higher taxes and just retreat. SARC

If it is caused by humans, then the only way to save the planet is to reduce the earth's population.

I suggest we start by reducing the population of Africa, India and China. (and not through immigration).

and if there is indeed “global climate change”, this has never happened to the earth EVER before. EVER! (at least, that’s what I read on Twitter so it must be true).

Only the left wants you to believe that the world must never change.

They are not progressives, but liars who want you to give them all your money and power through fear.

Nope, and then they triple down. I await the time when they are laughed at, and proven to be the evil money grabbing frauds with an agenda.

It’s unfortunate really, to conflate their lies with reality when in fact we all desire a clean planet - sheesh, the play on emotion is so exhausting!

🐂💩. We'll make newer better ones. It ain't like they've been "wonders" for billions of years. And the fidiocy continues. What was growing before the giant redwoods?

Gee, you know what?

Climate changes. It just does.

Where I’m sitting right now was buried under a mile of ice just a geological heartbeat ago, but LONG before the industrial revolution.

Climate changes, and there ain’t a damn thing you can do about it.

The shysters are trying to turn a buck from it, but I’m not buying their snake oil.

It isn't propaganda to them.

It has become their religion.

And is creating new ones. Since the world began. We can’t stop climate change or evolution. We are not divine.
