> Even the absolute worst case scenarios for climate change are not species ending events with current technology. And we have many decades ahead of us yet where can solve the problem with future technology yielding a negligible overall impact.
I'm not sure that we should keep telling ourselves we have many decades to fix this problem. If (ok, when) the arctic permafrost melts we could see runaway warming. Even without that, we put more carbon in to the air every year, every year this problem is harder to solve. Thinking we have decades to fix it is the main reason we're here, now, with heatwaves and wildfires and acidifying oceans
