How do we know the “current” is too strong to avoid going over the 1.5°C edge?
Here is how we know:
To achieve a below 1.5°C pathway we would need to reduce emissions by 8.7% starting THIS year, then again in 2025, 26, 27 every year until 2030.
This is *not* going to happen!
Just like on the Zambezi we have passed the point of no return. We must now prepare to go over.
