| The last two months had reduced MM fossil fuel emissions, the chart is not following.
| I would hope it would show a bit more from reduced cars, planes, etc.
Thank you for such valuable information. I was looking for a long time detailed explanation. I really appreciate your reply! it's very scary to know that our house may disappear or become hell through our own irresponsibility.
The scientists predicted global warming would manifest itself with more and more extreme weather events. 70deg F heatwaves in Antarctica (https://www.techspot.com/news/100275-antarctica-experienced-sharpest-heatwave-ever-seen-earth-last.html). Sudden rains (Libya gets 400mm rain in day in a month that normally only sees 1.5mm [Link: bbc.com]). It is getting so common that extreme weather events are the norm. It seems like there are more bad news every day.
Those elite liberal democrats are doing this so they can take our guns (or just maybe it really is happening?).
Until big governments and companies perceive that they can benefit by properly addressing climate change, nothing will happen. I suspect that big oil will see this as a business opportunity because developed countries will need more oil to run more potent air conditioners. The populations of under developed countries will start to shrink because they will not have the resources to protect their population from the heat. This will be a boon for the big companies because there will be less resistance as basic resources are stripped from the shrinking countries.
Until big government and company boards are replaced by younger, more environmentally aware types, nothing will change. Unfortunately, this will require decades. I don't know if we have enough remaining time to avoid crossing over into the point of climate no return. But this will not matter to the current elite because they will retreat to the expensive bunkers that they've been building.
Maybe solar power can replace much of the oil energy base, but big oil has had more than a century head start building iron clad relationships with the elites.
However, none of this begins to deal with environmental damage done by plastics and nano particles.

How fortunate we are to have the environmentally aware younger generations beseeching us to abandon that which has been the foundation of unprecedented human progress for regressive technologies wholly unfit for purpose. What better example of such glorious mindfulness could there be than that of my leading Green councillor extolling the virtues of 'cheap and abundant' renewables on the day the UK government was humiliated into announcing massive increases in the bungs being proffered to build them? But ignore the cost and think of the children, squeals a recent critic, seemingly unable to grasp that destroying a country's economy in pursuit of the net-zero pipe dream is hardly the way to safeguard the future for coming generations.
Not only are virtue-signalling environmentalists in denial about the environmental, social and financial cost of pursuing net zero emissions, but it appears they are also blissfully ignorant of why the West's obsession with climate change is ultimately meaningless.
Konstantin Kisin's Oxford Union address[1] provides a clue as to why:
"Now, what are we to do about this huge problem facing humanity? What can we in Britain do? We can only do one thing. You know why? This country is responsible for two per cent of global carbon emissions. Which means that if Britain was to sink into the sea right now, it would make absolutely no difference to the issue of climate change. You know why? Because the future of the climate is going to be decided in Asia and Latin America by poor people who couldn't give a shit about saving the planet."
However, for those who remain unconvinced, I suggest you consider the growing influence of BRICS and the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation. David Craig provides a sobering summary here[2].
