    @mr_washee_washee Either way, the technologies already exist and need to be deployed rapidly.

    The alternative is burning more fossil fuels.

    Which is both more expensive and *vastly* more dangerous. We need rapid progress towards sustainability, because it’s the *total* carbon emitted that matters.

    Emissions must peak by 2025 at the latest (in fact they must peak as soon as possible). The UK, for instance, has agreed to reduce its emissions by 68% by 2030 (compared to 1990), a target that it will almost certainly miss according to the last CCC report.

      alot of countries are going to miss their net 0 emission goal. there’s no need to compromise one own life style if governements arent serious about radical change. might as well keep driving ur fossil fuel car; u can’t stop private jets from flying or corproates from making extra revenue on the exepnse of the environement
