It's all fine and good for John Kerry to utter a fundamental truth about a major driver of climate catastrophe, but it is a useless proclamation without offering a solution.

Have enough tipping points been breached that there are no prescriptions to offer?

Yeah, I don't think any reasonable person is really suggesting that. I prefer that this group discuss matters in a materially and practically objective manner and eschew manufactured moral outrage or virtue signaling. I find no value in entertaining notions that include oxymoronic or indefinable phrases into a frank discussion, nor do I consider it topically relevant.

Furthermore, although you have mentioned one issue that should not be discussed, I notice that you have not given any indication as to why this should not be discussed. You can keep the answer to yourself, as I suspect that the answer has more to do with morality than the material reality in which humanity finds itself.

Finally, and continuing off-topic, if you don't want an abortion, don't get one. Subscribing one's morality to another is not only unhelpful, but undignified. Thank you for your cooperation.
