  • I would kindly ask you not to accuse me of lying - perhaps I was too brief in explaining my position and could have better phrased it.

    We have very clear thresholds in the IPCC for climate disaster mitigation. We are NOT on track to reduce emissions below those thresholds by 2030, the generally agreed upon date that such reductions are necessary by. By most accounts, we won’t hit those targets, particularly when considering who is currently the president of one of the world’s biggest contributors and potential leaders in said reductions.

    Put differently, climate science has been telling us for years that it will soon be too late, and we - in the opinion of many, including the EU’s Copernicus - have already surpassed the crucial 1.5c mark.
