Action needed to avoid disastrous overshoot of climate targets, according to organisation’s environment body
The world needs to cut carbon emissions by nearly a fifth in the next four years, and by close to half within a decade, to avoid overshooting climate targets by a disastrous margin.
Although the “window has closed” on holding temperature rises to 1.5C, in line with scientific advice, limiting the “overshoot” of that target is still possible, according to the UN Environment Programme (Unep).
But countries are failing to translate their long-term targets on reducing emissions into short-term actions, a report on the “emissions gap” between climate goals and policies has found.
Our best chance to meet that target is for earth to be hit by a major asteroid.
Boy, do I have bad news about how much carbon is going to be burned when a major asteroid hits.
We WILL get a mini-ice age from the blocking out of the sun though!
I’m at the point where I’m starting to think the best thing would be to let the world burn and a quick end to humanity.
Then kill yourself.
Otherwise you’re just spewing inane babble.
Depends how big the asteroid is .
an alien invasion would be better, but a meteorite impact is more realistic.
