We're going to hear more often now claims of a climate emergency and we're not doing enough in more strident terms. Few will look at that and realize it's both true and an impossibility in practicable terms to "do enough", that will have to come in a few years, if ever. This is why I've stated it would be nice if "we" faced hard facts. I don't expect that as the situation is politicized. You have True Believers and Deniers, and a large group in the middle who just want cheap gas and a clean environment.
To me it's a classic case of how science gets distorted when it intersects with the public interest. I think that is the case for any complex topic. It gets reduced to a level of simplicity that bears almost no resemblance to reality.
