Neither do I, but I understand emissions in 2021 were an all time high. Other than a natural process containing temperature increases vs. the total amount of greenhouse gases emitted, I don't see much indication we are going to stop anything in the near to medium term.
They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.

There's a fine line between salvation and drinking poison in the jungle.

As my signature states: If we want to prevent catastrophic economic and societal change we will have to radically change our climate system.
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

Nice to know we at least aren't on pace for the red zone....well mostly anyway. There is that upper limit  :ph34r:
