undo 20 years of climate action
so we’ll get back 20 years biodiversity, wild population, and habitat losses? glaciers will get 20 years thicker? our absolute emissions will fall?

It already is AI data centres are going to undo 20 years of climate action.

The investment into data centers is what was needed to fight climate change decades ago. They didn’t want to do that because it wasn’t as profitable as destroying our future.

what climate action ? emissions have only gone up in the last 20 years, a few solar panels and wind turbines don’t cut it.
The ONLY time emissions have gone down slightly is during an economic crisis eg COVID and 2008/2009 for example. There will be zero progress until we curb the emissions of the richest 10%, if they lived like the average European, we’d cut emissions by 34%. we could start with the richest 1% :) but that would involve voters changing their outlook in democracies and alas they aren’t so here we are, broiled.
