Renowned cryptocurrency analyst Willy Woo has expressed grave concern over the escalating climate crisis.
What Happened: On Sunday, Woo shared a post on X, formerly Twitter, describing a climate change chart as the scariest he has ever seen.

Woo further elaborated in the thread, Out of the major systems in the biosphere (I think he said theres around 17 systems?), the first 4 are already toast, we cant save them. One of those are coral reefs. Australia loses the Gt Barrier Reef.
Why It Matters: Woos alarming tweet comes amidst growing concerns over the imminent threat of climate change.
