It’s too late to have no identifiable impact, but absolutely not too late to stabilize temperatures — every 1/10 of a degree matters, and it’s better that we do it now than wait until we’ve burned every last bit of coal, oil, and gas.

For sure! It’s just frustrating how long this has been a known issue.

More of the CO2 currently in the atmosphere has been put there since it was a known issue.

Depressing but a bad situation is better than a terrible one, so we must push on.
