"[C]limate change is just a very, very expensive form of tax."

"I believe in climate change caused by human beings. What I'm skeptical about is the glib notion that it means the end of the world as we know it."

"The clock is no longer just ticking, it is banging."

"There is no long-term prosperity without action on climate change."

"The time for seeking global solutions [to climate change] is running out."

"The climate crisis is the existential threat. That's not hyperbole; it's a fact."

"[W]e are killing our planet."

Climate change is "above all, an existential crisis."

"Climate change is one of the greatest challenges mankind faces."

"If we don't take action, the collapse of our civilisations and the extinction of much of the natural world is on the horizon."

"Humanity is on thin ice — and that ice is melting fast."

"We haven't yet exceeded the bounds of viable human civilisation, but we're getting close."

Is Climate Change an Existential Threat?

Ecuador Monday declared a 60-day national emergency amid intensifying wildfires and an acute drought. Energy Minister Ines Manzano reported 17 active fires and five controlled ones, with the southern Azuay and Loja provinces being the hardest-hit.

Risk Management Secretary Jorge Carrillo said Ecuador has suffered the effects of "this great drought" for "almost 120 days." Over 5,100 fires have been reported in the country in the January-November period, killing six people.

Officials said that 40K hectares of crops have been gutted and over 44K farm animals killed. Peru and Italy are helping Ecuador control the blaze, with multiple helicopters and hundreds of firefighters and volunteers working on the ground.

Pres. Daniel Noboa's government has also imposed power cuts as Ecuador's worst drought in 60 years has dried up its key hydroelectric plants — source of 70% of its electricity — and with even the supply from Colombia affected.

Power outages now reportedly last up to 14 hours in Ecuador; energy Minister Ines Manzano has called this an "unprecedented crisis." Monday's declaration of emergency will free funds for the government to tackle the multi-pronged crisis.

Voice of America

The crisis has reportedly cost the country’s economy $2B, especially its small and medium-sized units. The government estimates over 3.5K jobs lost due to the power cuts. Meanwhile, unprecedented fires have broken out in other South American countries, too.
