“The scale of human suffering, which is already enormous, is growing rapidly as climate-related catastrophes escalate.” said Prof. Dr. Ibrahim Ozdemir; “We call on scientists, citizens and world leaders to read this special report and take the necessary steps quickly to avoid the worst effects of climate change,” he said. In the warning text, the consequences of the climate crisis were discussed in detail. Üsküdar University Humanities and Social Sciences Prof. Dr. İbrahim Özdemir, Dean of the Faculty of Education and Head of Üsküdar University Environmental Ethics Forum, stated that at the start of a new year, world scientists have issued the “Climate Emergency Alert” to protect nature and invited all humanity to take action on this issue. We have done important work for the environment in 2022 Noting that they are carrying out important studies for the protection of the environment in 2022, Prof. Dr. İbrahim Özdemir stated that they completed the Al-Mizan World Environment Convention project in 2022, and Üsküdar University Founding Rector Prof. Dr. He said that he and Nevzat Tarhan shared it with the public in September 2022. prof. Dr. İbrahim Özdemir : “Marmara sea is still on its deathbed” Noting that at the start of a new year, world scientists invited the whole world to take action to protect nature with the warning of “Climate Emergency”, Prof. Dr. İbrahim Özdemir noted that he wanted to translate the warning text and share it. Özdemir said, “The year 2022 was the 30th anniversary of the World Scientists’ Warning to Humanity, signed by more than 1,700 scientists in 1992. Although there were very positive developments in this process, the destruction of our planet and the problems related to the climate continued. The Sea of Marmara is still on its deathbed. Fish no longer live in many of our rivers, especially the Ergene River. It’s time to take care of our planet, our environment, our land, our seas, our lakes, our forests, our ‘home’ in short. We have translated the manifesto written by famous scientists and signed by approximately 15 thousand scientists so far. Of course, first of all, let me state that as a Muslim environmentalist, I also signed this call.” said. We are code red for the world Noting that the message of the scientists who prepared the manifesto was clear and unequivocal, Prof. Dr. İbrahim Özdemir said, “We are currently in a ‘code red’ situation for the world. Humanity is definitely facing a climate emergency. The scale of human suffering, which is already enormous, is growing rapidly as climate-related disasters increase. That’s why we urge scientists, citizens and world leaders to read this special report and take swift action to avoid the worst effects of climate change. Our colleagues draw attention to the moral urgency of this global crisis.” said. Noting that the Üsküdar University Environmental Ethics Forum is what they are trying to do, Prof. Dr. İbrahim Özdemir said, “To act morally without expecting anything from others. We share what we can do on our website. Of course, we have many environmental friends explaining this. In this new call, scientists ‘follow recent climate disasters, assess the planet’s vital signs and offer comprehensive policy recommendations’.” said. The world is heading towards the highest temperature level prof. Dr. In the text of the 2022 Climate Emergency Alert translated into Turkish by İbrahim Özdemir, it was stated that the current policies are leading the planet towards a warming of about 3 degrees Celsius by 2100, “This is a temperature level that the world has not experienced in the last 3 million years. The consequences of global warming are becoming more and more extreme, and consequences such as worldwide social collapse are plausible and dangerously under-studied.” it was said. Climate change could also lead to a food crisis Noting that climate change is increasing the frequency and intensity of severe weather events around the world, the warning text said, “This is likely due to a variety of interrelated processes, including a general warming trend, changing precipitation patterns, rising sea levels and changes in air currents. For example, rapid warming in the Arctic may have made summer airflow in the Northern Hemisphere more prone to curling and blocking, causing heatwaves, floods, droughts, and other disasters. Some extreme weather events are no longer just occurring more frequently, but more intensely or closer together in time and space. This increases damage, shortens recovery time, and may also increase the likelihood of extreme risks such as simultaneous global failure in crop yields in major food producing regions.” has been warned. Disasters disproportionately harm poor people “Tragically, these disasters disproportionately harm poor people in low-income areas that are the least contributors to greenhouse gas accumulation. For example, in the summer of 2022, a third of Pakistan was flooded, 33 million people were displaced and 16 million children were affected. Other disasters this year include horrific bushfires in Europe, back-to-back tornadoes and ensuing floods in eastern Australia, multiple rivers that dried up in China and Europe, an extraordinarily severe hurricane that hit the southeastern United States, Bangladesh and India. There are strong storms and large-scale floods in Turkey.” The warning text also included details such as economy, energy, climate effects and climate policy, and called for action.
