Not gonna lie... It scared me when they mentioned that we only have 2025-2031 to properly reduce emissions and save at least half of humanity.

Also, it was interesting how they mentioned the fossil fuel tactics that are similar to the cigarette industry on distorting data.

Is it true that we have so little time left?

You’ve gotta be careful with stuff like this because it can be so scary as to petrify you. That isn’t helpful. Stress is supposed to elicit a reaction. Ultimately, the Earth is a big ship and takes a while to change, let alone steer. A horrific storm is on the horizon of our lifetimes, but we must carry on and do what we can. Fighting for socialism is the start, as capitalist countries will fail at emissions mitigation because it’s not profitable enough. It’s going to be an ugly start to the Anthropocene.
