"[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?

Venezuela's acting President Delcy Rodríguez declared a state of emergency after two earthquakes — measured at magnitudes 7.1 and 7.5 by the USGS — struck near the Caribbean coast on Wednesday, collapsing buildings in Caracas and closing the country's main international airport.

Financial Times

Venezuela's acting President Delcy Rodríguez declared a state of emergency after two earthquakes — measured at magnitudes 7.1 and 7.5 by the USGS — struck near the Caribbean coast on Wednesday, collapsing buildings in Caracas and closing the country's main international airport.

The USGS warned that "high casualties and extensive damage are probable" and that the disaster was "likely widespread." The agency estimated between 10,000 and 100,000 people could be killed, though no official death toll had been released by Wednesday night.

The two quakes struck 39 seconds apart, with the first epicentered northwest of Montalbán in Carabobo state and the second about 16 km away near Morón. Both were shallow, increasing the intensity of shaking felt across a wide area including Caracas, some 168 km to the east.

Buildings collapsed across multiple Caracas neighborhoods, including Los Palos Grandes, Altamira and San Bernardino. The Chacao mayor confirmed at least 18 people had been rescued, with more than 500 search-and-rescue personnel deployed to find survivors.

Buildings collapsed across multiple Caracas neighborhoods, including Los Palos Grandes, Altamira and San Bernardino. The Chacao mayor confirmed at least 18 people had been rescued, with more than 500 search-and-rescue personnel deployed to find survivors.

Geophysicist Vashan Wright of the University of California told Al Jazeera there was a "99 percent chance" of magnitude 3 and 4 aftershocks within the following week, with a magnitude 5 carrying over 90% probability. More than 20 aftershocks had already been recorded by Thursday morning, according to AFP.

The twin earthquakes are among the strongest to strike Venezuela in over a century. The country's last major quake, a magnitude 6.3 tremor in 1967, killed more than 200 people and injured around 2,000, according to Venezuela's Foundation on Seismic Investigations.
