It is language folks use when they wish to sound insistent, some of them realize nothing real will happen.
Governments will throw money at the problem, basically enriching the insiders, and subsidizing wealthy folks to buy $70K EVs. There is no coherent plan, as I keep noting, because there simply isn't one anywhere that is remotely realistic. The path needed I've cited before is completely unrealilstic, it's laughable. It starts with no more coal plants after 2020, and China is blowing right through that.
At great cost, western nations will do a little bit, and complain down the road that they didn't do more.
I've mentioned my own plan for the US would be to replace coal fired plants fairly quickly, I could get down with that. Coal is nasty.
