All Negative comments will be removed and will possibly result in a ban.

Time to get to work then in these comments... Having a reduction in the effect of climate change is still a positive thing compared to no reduction. Climate change is not a all or nothing thing.

If this was enforced I'd have been banned a long damn time ago.

So many articles posted here are too horrifying to not comment on it.

yeah lets make this a echo chamber where we allow misinformation to run amock and set us back.

I love me some uplifting news, and you have to go find it cause capitalism wants us to despair, however, there is a balance to be had with noncritical thinking optimism.

Besides if any is using this space as a reason *not* to do anything to fight for a better world, then they are part of the problem.

There is no reduction. No one has changed their actions. The party will only end in 51 years instead of 50.

I thought we were all meant to be underwater a couple decades back?

I would love to see what the climate settles into when I stop seeing chem trails in the sky on the daily for a year or two. That seems like a much easier intervention to apply than telling everyone to stop using their cars and eating food.

Chemtrails aren’t real. You (clean) burn petrol, you get CO2 and H2O.

It’s the big corporations that make the largest impact. The top 10% of countries, i.e. US, 50% and bottom 50% only 10% combined. China is the biggest emitter by tonnage.

US will always have the most cumulative effect due to size, waste, and being early developed, compounded over the years. The world would go to hell pretty quickly if everyone were able to live like us.

That's really weird... Because here in Australia we have had legislation since, I think, the 70s, allowing for exactly that. It's not exactly a secret, man. Even on Top Gear they had an episode with weather manipulation. China had a song and dance about it not that long ago
