Universal peace requires universal justice: The global significance of the 6th Rally of Hope
By BENJAMIN F. CHAVIS
I believe the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. words from the past are still true and relevant today, “Peace is not the absence of war, but it is the presence of justice.” The recent international 5th Rally of Hope was sponsored by the Universal Peace Federation, an NGO organization with consultative status with Economic and Social Council of the United Nations.
The global virtual Rally of Hope reached over 320 million people on more than 4oo digital platforms in addition to print, TV and radio media coverage on Feb. 27. World leaders from Asia, Africa, Europe, North and South America issued a united call for peace throughout the world.

You can’t use the ocean as a carbon accounting trick without seriously looking at ocean acidification, which always occurs during large mass extinctions, according to the geological records we have discovered. Dead oceans mean a dead planet, at least for a few millennia if not longer. And ocean acidification happens because the CO2 in the atmosphere mixes with ocean water turning into carbonic acid, slowly but inevitably raising the pH by orders of magnitude unimaginable outside the worst geologic and extinction level crises.
This is the problem with ‘net-zero’ vs actual zero emissions and the continued belief among poorly informed policymakers and journalists who don’t understand that the planet is a complicated and mostly closed physical system that won’t respond to accounting tricks since Nature has already put the vast majority of the carbon emitted and heat captured by said carbon in the oceans.
