UN climate report calls for immediate action to curb global warming - UPI
UPI reports: "The latest report from the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change
calls for "rapid, far-reaching and unprecedented changes" to limit
global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius.
The IPCC report, which was produced with the help of 91 authors and
review editors from 40 countries, was approved over the weekend at a
meeting in South Korea. [...] The UN report warns the most serious
impacts of climate change could arrive as early as 2030 if carbon
emissions aren't significantly reduced."
Comment: Most governments are run by ideologues and not pragmatists and since all of this costs money and there are other more immediate and tangible things to spend money on, nothing will be done about this. This means we will be able to look back in the future and confirm that the climate-change skeptics had it wrong. It's not the best way to win an argument.
