To Avoid a Regional Confrontation in the Middle East

The U.S. getting involved in the Israel-Hamas war would set off anti-American sentiment all over the Middle East. Many people in the Middle East bear frustration, fear, or are upset about America’s global strategy. Sending the military to or making arms deals with Israel could, for instance, send Iran and its proxies lurching. It would set off a conflagration of responses among anti-Israeli and anti-American groups in North Africa and the Near East.

Dire Climate Catastrophe

In order to prevent irreversible damage to be done to the environment and the global climate as a result of people-induced global warming, the only way to do this is to maintain a rise in no more than 1.5 degrees C above the pre-industrial levels by 2050. Currently, countries are on pace to hit the global warming mark of a 2.5-2.9 degree rise by 2030. There are radical ideas in the environamental studies sector that are also practical in terms of implementing green neutrality and net zero carbon emissions. All it takes is the people calling for it. Otherwise, governments have kept putting Big Fuel companies above climate urgency.
