They should stop thinking about it and start taking great strides already. We want results not chit chat, and with how things are still in a decline they should probably at least get that ball rolling?

Cool. Way too late to make any kind of difference, but pat yourselves on the back for announcing pitiful carbon emissions targets.

I think climate negativism is often very counterproductive in the ongoing fight for effective measures. Pessimism of the intellect, optimism of the will, my friend!

Is it negativity when there's no effective measures in sight? Is is pessimism to look at the presented data and make a realistic conclusion?

Where does hope stop and naïvety begin?
