Thermal systems are slow. On the planetary scale of pump and dump heat the lag is something like 30 years. So the change you’re experiencing today is the effect of what was exhausted in the 90s. What we’re getting in 2050 is already locked in.

It's not—the point is that many people that were claiming climate change is a hoax have shifted, now that it's much plainer that climate change is real, to saying it's too late to do anything about it so we shouldn't try.

It's just finding new narratives to protect the incumbent moneyed interests from ever having their infinitely increasing rate of growth threatened.

Some reports indicate it is already to late for emission reduction, or even elimination, to halt the feedback effects that continue the trend. But it won't be too late for active climate engineering until the effects of the climate change prevent our ability to do that engineering.

It'll already be summer temperatures in winter and most life will have died off

Because photosynthesis grinds to a halt at about 40c. This is what people are missing. Climate change isn’t the world hiding in their apartments with the AC blasting, its cities burning a week after everything seemed fine.

Civilisation takes millennia of stable, plentiful resources to create, and a week without food for 30 percent of the population to utterly destroy.

I’d love to be wrong, if you disagree please say why.
