@thesupriyaverma: We’ve crossed the planet’s first catastrophic tipping point. According to a landmark report, the Earth has now entered an era where major climate systems are beginning to unravel. The first to fall? Warm-water coral reefs — ecosystems that sustain a quarter of all marine life and protect millions of coastal communities. Scientists warn that unless global heating is rapidly reduced toward 1.2 °C, reefs will face widespread and irreversible dieback. The same report finds that the Amazon rainforest, Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets, and key ocean currents are dangerously close to their own tipping points. These aren’t distant threats. They’re happening now — and they mirror our social and moral tipping points as well. 🌡️ What’s at stake: • Reefs shelter ~25 % of marine species, yet more than half are already lost since the 1950s. • Nearly 500M people depend on coral reefs for food, income, and protection. • Once gone, recovery could take centuries . Yet the report also reminds us that positive tipping points exist: renewable energy breakthroughs, circular economies, regenerative leadership, and women rising across every sector. ✨From female students at @mcmasterwise to women board leaders at @wgobcanada to media groups like @sustainabilityx to environmental trailblazers at Women for Nature @naturecanada_ — women are spearheading sustainability solutions. That’s why I wrote my upcoming book, Bold Women, Sustainable Futures: Leadership Lessons in an Age of Resistance: 👉Sign up for updates: https://supriyaverma.kit.com/6035574f05 It’s a book about women redefining leadership through courage, compassion, and conviction — and about how we can turn despair into direction. One of its most powerful sections, “The Turning Point,” explores how women leaders confront moments of resistance — the same way our planet now faces its own — and emerge stronger, more visionary, and more united. Because every ecological tipping point demands a human turning point. As coral reefs reach theirs, so do we. The question is: will we turn back — or rise forward? The planet is at a tipping point. ↪️We are at a turning point. ⏳If coral reefs can’t wait, neither can we. ⚖️Because when women lead, communities become stronger. Economies become fairer. And sustainable development becomes possible for all. 🌅Launching March 2026, “Bold Women, Sustainable Futures” is a tribute to every woman shaping change — in boardrooms, in classrooms, in laboratories, and on the frontlines of climate justice. Together, we rise, we lead, and we write the next chapter. 💙🌍💜 💚🙋‍♀️The future is sustainable—and female. 🔔Official names of all women featured dropping later this month! Stay tuned. #WomenInSustainability #BoldWomenSustainableFutures #SustainableDevelopment #Leadership #WomenEmpowerment
