Surely still demanding and getting a pass from negotiators. Not even indirectly mentionned.
Yes most of the heavy lifting will come from the wealthiest 10% of families, responsible for 35to 40% of carbon emissions but will they?
No mention of energy rationing that would make extreme sense when people cannot be expected to share the pain, based on the historical record. TEQs Tradable Energy Quota system is out there, on the shelf, ‘ahead of it’s time’ in 1990s according to UK Special Committee investigation.
Your article includes an unfortunate slam against biochar in a paragraph of generalities about BECCS.
No mention of powerful cooling benefits from stabilizing the local hydrological cycle.
