UN says “No credible pathway” and “woefully inadequate” to stop global 1.5C
There is no chance of removing existing CO2 from Air to make any sort of difference.<p>There is no chance of meaningfully reducing CO2 emissions, because outside of Nuclear (and hydro&#x2F;geothermal but only if you have the geography for it) there is no alternative to replacing fossil fuels. At some point the public will realize the lie of solar&#x2F;wind as a replacement. We lost 50 years of greatly reduced emissions had nuclear power continued to be rolled out at the same rate as it did in the 60s&#x2F;70s.<p>There is possibility of geoengineering (e.g. emitting some sort of sun-light reflecting gas into the atmosphere to cool the climate) but that suffers from a potential &quot;law of unintended consequences&quot;.<p>It seems like we&#x27;re going to have to deal with it.
