Top climate scientist decrules 2C climate goal 'dead'
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
If it helps you feel better about your vote. Your vote either way for the past 40 years would be irrelevant.
We all die sooner with Republicans controlling the US.
they might crater the economy so badly that it wipes out a ton of carbon use and buys the rest of the world some more time (albeit probably along with millions of people starving to death, akin to Mao's famine)
Feels good to live in a country where my vote for the Greens party actually matters.
Most of the other responsible will be dead by then. I'd much prefer they see their mistakes (⇀ ↼‶)
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.
