Top climate scientist decrules 2C climate goal 'dead'
Holding long-term global warming to two degrees Celsius -- the fallback target of the Paris climate accord -- is now "impossible," according to a stark new analysis published by leading scientists.
Welp, it's official. Been a good(?) run everyone. Here is the paper that is referred to.
Edit: So, reading the actual paper, the article is somewhat sensationalized (shocker, i know). It is still possible to prevent collapse, but it requires extensive and fairly quick reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.
F**k if I have any regrets its not voting green not that it would have mattered but I would have felt better
Most of the other responsible will be dead by then. I'd much prefer they see their mistakes (⇀ ↼‶)
At this point I just hope I die before it gets too much worse. Spring and summer make me horribly depressed because they're so much different than they were when I was a kid.
well yeah if you look at it like that, then it might seem so. but they're underestimating exponential growth
sources for the pictures: the first two are from ourworldindata.org, the last one is a plot i made my self, based on the extrapolation in the third picture.
