On climate science, there aren't two reasonable sides. One is the scientific consensus, and the other is a small but vocal faction of people trying to fight it. axios.link/j2UU

This is the plot that keeps me up at night. Also, remember: 2.0°C will be awful. Curves for 1.5°C are even steeper. This is why we must start NOW, and be halfway to zero in 12 years. We don't "have 12 years" before getting busy as many imply. #GreenNewDeal with a carbon price!

Carbon Math: The costs of delay are staggering.If we had started global decarbonization in 2000, we would have had to progress at a rate of 3% per year. If we start today, it is 10% per year (really tough). If we delay ten more years, it is 30% per year! This math is inexorable.
