Isn't this the moment to make a proper break from fossil fuel?
No, we passed that 25 years ago without even acknowledging it
Sadly I hadn't considered that. 😔. Still, isn't now an opportunity as well?
Yes absolutely, we can and should be mitigating and adapting to climate change as an urgent international priority.
We'll end up fixing it one way or the other, and the sooner we start, the better. There is a lot money pumped into doom mongering to try slow progress as progress will lose certain rich parties a lot of money. But we just keep doing our best and looking for ways to do better. At the end of day, using less saves money and green energy is cheap energy. No one wants to live in poison.
