Earth is exceeding 'safe operating space for humanity', study says
Earth is exceeding its "safe operating space for humanity" in six of nine key measurements of its health, and two of the remaining three are heading in the wrong direction, a new study has said. Only the acidity of the oceans, the health of the air and the ozone layer are within the boundaries considered safe, and both ocean and air pollution are heading in the wrong direction, the study in the journal Science Advances found. "We are in very bad shape," said study co-author Johan Rockstrom, director of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research in Germany.
