And, as usual, something is missing. The article by hyper-alarmist Brad Plumer is referencing the silly report release from the highly politicized and far left IPCC. I’m skipping right to their “steps”
(Vox) 1) Right now, the world is failing badly at its climate goals
That’s step one? Really? Maybe they wouldn’t be failing if warmists would practice what they preach.
2) Hitting those goals will require sharp emissions cuts — and soon
Not so much a step as a whine.
3) Cutting emissions will require a massive technological push
The primary way they think this could be done is through… You got it…. a carbon tax. At least it resembles a “step”.
4) We’d also likely need to pull carbon out of the atmosphere
Except, those technologies are largely imaginary, which even the IPCC admits.
5) Cutting emissions will cost us — but so will global warming
That old canard of Hotcoldwetdry killing economies. Funny how the economic activity during periods of rising temperatures have actually been very good for humanity.
6) Countries will have to start working together for a change
How’d that work out with The Kyoto Protocol? Almost no signatory countries came close to their goals.
7) Even if we cut emissions, we’ll still need to adapt to a hotter world
And then we’ll have to adapt to a cooler world when another Holocene cool period kicks in.
Obviously, any step that includes Believers getting off their duffs, giving up on spreading awareness, and walking the talk was completely avoided. As usual.
