I was thinking the same thing when I read that line. We should be making "war time sized investments" in renewables and forestation etc. and there's a long way to go.

However, I remain carefully optimistic. If the predictions are correct and 2023 was the top of CO2 emmisions, this positive news will finally show that the existing efforts are not futile, and that it is happening whether or not the rich sociopaths or apathetic consumers want it.
