Environment & Energy

For the past quarter century or so, I’ve been dismayed by climate targets that say we need to (for example) limit warming to 2°C by 2100. My next question is, “Then what happens? (You know) after 2100?” I suppose it’s not my problem, as I will be long dead, as will the people who have set those lofty goals, but things seem to be advancing so quickly… and so little effective action is being taken to avert a global catastrophe, as if all of humanity is sleep-walking off a cliff, I begin to wonder if my question, “Then what happens? (after 2100?)” is moot for the whole damned planet.
