More precisely it says:
"Any relapse or stasis in emissions reduction policies could lead to a plausible
worst case of 7°C of warming by the end of the century (10 per cent chance)."

- haimez 5y ago> The economic ramifications of increased emissions reduction will fuck us as well. So are you proposing that the best course of action is to literally do nothing because of the economic ramifications? This is the obviously important question and the fact that you chose not to address it is at best: lazy, but at worst and most likely: negligent. There will be economic ramifications no matter what we do. Society needs to make hard decisions about what positive actions to take, including inaction, and there are no easy answers. Please try harder in the future to avoid being flippant and/or partisan and also aim to meaningfully engage with the discussion about the problem at hand constructively.
