In non-surprising breaking news - we're fucked.

"The numbers paint a clear picture," the U.N. said. "To keep emissions below the critical 1.5-degree target set in Paris in 2015, countries must cut emissions by 42 percent overall by 2030 and achieve a 57 percent reduction by 2035."

I remember back in 2018 that there was this big climate report that said we had 10 years left or else climate disaster would be inevitable. I remember because I was dooming over it hard.

But now, 6 years later, the goalpost shifted to 2035? Again the "in 10 years" thing?

This feels like it's trying to sell people hopium on something that can no longer be fixed. Make us think we have some arbitrary deadline so we'll remain calm.

This feels like it's trying to sell people hopium on something that can no longer be fixed.

It also keeps feeding into the fascist frenzy that "climate change is a hoax, they've been saying the world will end since the 70s"

And... that's not at all what the science said ever.
