PersnickityPenguin, 9 months ago Kyoto was in 1997. 2030 is 33 years, you can’t seriously consider 1.5 generations is a sprint. Which, by the way, there is almost no conceivable way we are going to meet the 2030 deadline to maintain 1.5C. We have to think longer term. There still is no zero emissions technology for long haul airlines, shipping, or pouring concrete for infrastructure. Those are all huge emitters.
