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.
