> if we reduce emmissions to zero this year, it still results in +1.5 C increase by the end of the century

this is non-sense according to the ipcc models

for 1.5C, we still have a budget of 200BN tonCO2e

for 2C, we have about 1TN tonCO2e

for 2.5C, 2TN ton, is within current trajectory of progress

we currently emmit about 50BN tons/annum

All of the above are bad, but degrees (ha! pun!) matter

Bashing the developing world is not helpful. The US account for a massive chunk of historical emissions and excess consumption.
