Good read from The Post on climate scenarios, scenarios that turn out differently depending on what we do.

To finish the century at 1.5C temperature increase, we need 'to go well beyond the popular “net zero” goal for fossil fuel emissions. Rather, the world will have to be removing more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere than it is putting in — “net negative.”  '

Where is the political commitment to keep the climate in check?
