There is a carbon budget that countries have agreed to (though the budget is too optimistic, and countries aren’t really committed to it). Either we stick to the agreements we made, or we keep doing whatever we feel like doing.
- strainer 8y agoThe UK's agreed carbon budget is to achieve 80% reduction by 2050, and the US administration is no longer even officially interested in its own. Those agreements are bust on their own terms never mind the idea of zero emissions. Don't over rate their importance, we should and can do much better, much quicker.
