Guess what? Well, another report generated by scientists and distributed through a United Nation's agency says what was obvious from day one about the voluntary 2015 Paris Agreement:
The world is not yet living up to its undertaking to tackle global warming, and it will have to make tripled climate cuts − at least − if it is to do so, a report says.Thus, the capitalist ruling classes who dominate the world have "enjoyed their cake and ate it, too". They lulled workers all over the world while pursuing the accumulation of wealth and power--the health of our planet be damned! These ruling classes are so thoroughly addicted to their drugs that any appeal to reason is futile. They are late stage drug addicts: they can only go after more drugs of wealth and power that their system of capitalism supplies them to satisfy their addiction. Meanwhile, most of humanity believes their lies (think the Paris Agreement) and go back to their ordinary lives while the rest of conscious humanity, which unfortunately is a tiny minority, can only sit back, powerless to do anything about it, and wonder how much time is left before the next catastrophe strikes them.
The emissions gap − the difference between the global emissions of greenhouse gases scientists expect in 2030 and the level they need to be at to honour the world’s promises to cut them − is the largest ever.
The 2018 Emissions Gap Report is published by the UN Environment Programme (UNEP). While it is still possible to keep global warming below 2°C, its authors say, the world’s current pace of action to cut emissions must triple for that to happen.
