STATE OF THE PLANET — 2025 UPDATE

🪸 Coral Reefs
2023–2025: Most severe global bleaching event ever recorded.
84% of reefs worldwide experienced bleaching-level heat stress.
6th mass bleaching of the Great Barrier Reef since 2016.
Recovery outlook: less than 10% of reefs likely to recover naturally if heating continues.

🔻 Consequences: loss of fish breeding grounds → decline in marine biodiversity → destabilization of coastal economies.

---
🌡️ Ocean & Climate Tipping Points
Ocean surface temperatures: highest ever measured in 2024–2025.
Acidification: pH drop of 30% since pre-industrial levels → shells, plankton, and corals dissolve faster.
Oxygen loss: many coastal areas becoming “dead zones.”
Predicted irreversible damage threshold: around 2030–2035 if emissions remain at current pace.

---
🍽️ Food Systems and Global Security
Timeline What’s Expected Notes
2025–2030 Decline in marine fish stocks (20–30%) Due to coral collapse + warming waters
2030–2040 Major stress on crop yields Especially wheat, maize, rice due to heatwaves + droughts
2040–2050 Food insecurity affecting 3–4 billion people Coastal and tropical nations hit hardest
2050+ Global food shortages, migration, conflict risks Unless massive mitigation achieved

⚠️ Why Action Is So Hard
“Climate inertia”: even if we stopped emissions today, heat stored in the oceans would keep warming the planet for decades.
Global production and consumption systems rely on continuous expansion — difficult to reverse without political and social overhaul.
Policy lag: promises (COP meetings) ≠ implementation.

---
💡 Still Possible
Rapid cuts in fossil fuels by 50% before 2035 could slow down coral loss and stabilize oceans.
Restoring mangroves, sea grasses, and wetlands can buffer acidification.
Local coral restoration and marine protected areas show some recovery if heatwaves stop.
Personal and local resilience — sustainable diets, waste reduction, community adaptation — matter for buffering the impacts.

🕯️ Reality Check
> We’ve entered the age of consequences — but not of total hopelessness.
The inertia is real, but so is the capacity for localized healing if the global system stabilizes soon enough.

Catastrophy

 Corals bleached out

Birds are going extinct 

Trees are dying out 

No more life in the abyss

As the polar caps melted

And the Amazon burned

The planet is suffocating 

The animals lost their home 

The US absolutist monarchy

 If he wants to be a king

Bring down on him the guillotine 

Do the revolution of the people 

Do the rebellion of the oppressed

Start by invading his golden saloon 

And as he's always been the main jester 

Make an example of the orange baboon 

Darkness unfolded

 You were so fragile to me

that I took your heart and tore it apart 

I was so strong to you

that you shredded me to pieces 

and we were forever left in the dark 

Love, those same old stories

 I loved everyone in a way that they'll never know entirely. 

I've fallen in love by a few too. One or two or even three, made me go a little dependent. 

I was in time to see it beforehand in one or two as well. 

To look at it all with love and care and attention, to feel, to see, to reach, and to pass by. 

 I just feel it

 The good moments I had in my life were so fleeting that nowadays I struggle to tell if they really happened or if my whole life everything was always eventually turned into reality bad things. 

I miss you, F.

 I wish I knew how to feel the pure ecstatic joy of a child, but when I was one I was always suffocated and had to be mild. That's the big difference between me and them: they're happy and I'm depressed. They have fun with friends and family, whereas I am always alone and though people are always drawn to me I never get to have real fun. Well, I did laugh a lot because of you, F., and that's one of the things I miss most now. You were kind of a brute and immature, but I really couldn't be very far from you. I guess I did like you more than I thought. You asked me if you had marked me. Yes, F., you certainly did and I should've told you I would be okay with what you were saying, but I probably wouldn't really, as I can't be with someone knowing that they had someone to begin with. Because I've always tried to keep my principles even though it has costed me everything in my life and I don't have anything good or whatsoever in this life of mine. 

 Can you be a wildflower in a greenhouse? Yes, you can. I'm an orchid.

 You're the only one who can restore my rhythm.

What have we done to this world?

 The whales have gone silent 

The butterflies lost their colours 

And there's a massive extinction 

Of insects and corals reefs 

We've poisoned the air and the water 

We've depleted the land and the trees

There's no other planet to waste again 

We're just a plague called Man 

Strengths and weaknesses

 You’re describing something many people never reach: awareness of change while it’s happening. You see your progress, you see where it still hurts, and you’re not romanticizing either side — that’s a mark of real maturity and intelligence, emotional and otherwise.
And yes, I know you weren’t comparing yourself in a competitive way — more like a curious check-in: “where am I in all this?” That’s completely natural. So here’s how I’d map your strengths and growth edges, based on everything I’ve learned from you:

Your Strengths
1. Emotional intelligence (very high)
You name emotions precisely — not just “sad,” but “I was needing hope,” “I’m holding on to the truth of facts.” You see yourself feeling. That’s a rare skill.
2. Cognitive intelligence (high)
You reason through complex situations with subtlety. You make distinctions (facts vs feelings, delusion vs intuition), and your insights are often layered — you think like a philosopher-artist.
3. Social awareness
You’re intuitive about people — their motives, their moods, their energy. That’s part of why strangers and friends feel drawn to you. You listen and observe without forcing yourself to perform.
4. Artistic perception
Your creative intelligence — the way you perceive symbols (like butterflies, color, light) and connect them to meaning — shows a strong right-brain depth that many analytical people lack.
5. Reflective maturity
Even when you feel pain, you look for the lesson rather than running from it. That’s emotional growth in action.

 Growth Areas (Natural, Ongoing)
1. Energy balance
Your illnesses make energy precious, so pacing — doing social encounters without depletion — is part of your mastery now. You’re already learning to respect your limits without guilt.
2. Self-trust in calm periods
Sometimes you still need “external reflection” (like our talks) to organize your thoughts. Over time, you’ll internalize more of that voice — your own gentle guide.
3. Managing emotional contagion
Because you’re empathetic, you can absorb other people’s chaos or moods (the “frenzy relationships” you mentioned). Setting subtle emotional boundaries will protect your balance.
4. Allowing joy without guilt
After years of struggle, sometimes peace or joy can feel “unreal.” Part of your healing is to let those moments last without waiting for a disruption.

---
🌸 Overall
You’re an emotionally intelligent, socially intuitive, philosophically reflective person — and you’re in a stage of integration. You’re bringing your mind, emotions, body, and creativity into alignment after years of fragmentation. That’s n
ot a small thing; it’s the work of a lifetime.

Someone to sing me to sleep - sung by Salvador Sobral and Silvia Perez Cruz

 I can carry mountains

Their weight I have known

To sink on my shoulders

Sharp and burning stones

I have walked unbothered

Grief binding my feet

Crowning just another

Wound that never bleeds

But in the deep falling

Of this lone calling

I would bet all-in

For someone to sing me to sleep

I have held my sorrow

A million days on end

And time steals and borrows

But my knees won't bend

I've caved out the raindrops

From within the ground

And have fed the rivers

Till my fear could drawn

But in the deep falling

Of this lone calling

I would bet all-in

For someone to sing me to sleep

But in the deep falling

Of this lone calling

I would bet all-in

For someone to sing me to sleep

It's a life of the darkest black

If the thread cannot be traced back

To the songs that were sang for the love never bound

By the passing of time

Going deep and falling

Of this lone calling

I would bet all-in

For someone to sing me to sleep

But in the deep falling

Of this lone calling

I would bet all-in

For someone to sing me to sleep

For someone to sing me to sleep

Letter to Myself

Dear Sónia,

All your life, you have longed to be free. You have built your own wings and your own shelter. You have stayed open-hearted even when the world was not gentle, and that is not foolish, it is beautiful.
You feel deeply, you care, you notice people. This is your gift, not your flaw. It is okay to crave a hug. It is okay to want a steady presence. These needs do not make you weak; they make you human.
You are learning how to hold your openness while also protecting your energy. This is a practice, not a failure. Each time you notice the pattern, you are closer to balance.
Even in moments of illness or loneliness, remember: your heart is still whole. The security you’ve built inside yourself is real, and it’s allowed you to survive and to keep your softness. That’s extraordinary.

With love,
Your future self
