Isn't it too late to stop the climate crisis? Perhaps we should be asking ourselves not how to stop it but how to survive it.
From my perspective: unfortunately yes. Although countries around the globe decided to cut carbon emission, it has gone up with 2.5%.
Think of all produce from crude oil: not just petrol, kerosine, LPG, but plastics including polyester for fabric, nylon, some medication, but also margarine and laundry powder and many, many more.
I'm afraid we went past the point of no return. Better prepare for the seas reclaiming land.
Look on the bright side.
We could still be in a Nuclear Winter if the "Cuban Missile Crisis" had of gone south.
That would have been chilly. <brrrrr>
