  • That would just have slowed it down not stopped it. Fossil fuels must end, one way, or as it seems to be the case, the other.

  • Staying under 2C wasn't that difficult.

    Respectfully disagree. Ending fossil fuels is not easy. Technically, politically and economically.

    The hardest part was getting China to go along, and that's gone reasonably.

    It's a beautiful way to correct your coffee. Delighful for sunday brunch.

    I have the same concerns, with Chinese and especially US technology for all the same reasons.

  • At the North Pole? Soon.

  • If only we did what we knew we had to these last 40 years.

  • Good no one should trade with the US.

  • It's not cognitive dissonance, it's hate and cruelty.
