> What's the point of gloating when issue has not been addressed?
It is being addressed. A month before net zero the problem won’t be over, but it’s also far from unaddressed.
Progress is about rates of change not success. A real argument can be made that we are more than 1/3 of the way to net zero. Back in 1892 nobody was willing to give up heating their homes with coal, but today are homes can remain toasty without the need to burn fossil fuels. Coal is almost dead so it’s mostly oil and natural gas which are being replaced and far less plentiful.
If nothing else at current oil consumption proven reserves run out around 2070. Humanity could absolutely fuck the world beyond recognition using coal, oil isn’t as plentiful.
