What tomorrow is there with +4°C in 2100, and what happens in the meantime?
(greenhouse gases emissions are not slowing down, we're closer to 2100 than we are to the invention of the transistor).

- Juliate 1y agoI am afraid you (and still to many others) don't grasp the kinetics and the scale of the phenomenon... We're on a trajectory that is not solvable before several centuries at least, probably millennia. It spans more generations that we've had since the fall of the Roman Empire. We're only 2-to-3 generations away from 2100/+4°C. Our kids can merely adapt to, with immensely reduced liveable and cultivable surface area on the planet. The whole culture they'll have to invent/live in to find a "solution" barely exists today, if at all.
