    Next years are going to be really interesting considering we are inching closer to those deadlines that were once too far away to even care about every day,

    And with the deadlines these lawsuits are probably getting more and more.

      And no one in power realizes or cares about the danger we are in. If anyone actually cared we would have treated this like the threat to global civilization that it is not a far off mild annoyance.

        Plenty of them know. But they’re only able care about the next election, because if they don’t, a party with simple solutions will decimate them at the ballot box. Not likely to be entirely a coincidence that pro-Russia politicians are also pro-fossil fuels, is it?

        Look at the Netherlands. The Dutch government tried to do something about nitrogen. They’d waited too long, the courts got involved, so they had no choice. The result? A farmers protest party won the most seats in provincial elections, and now far right Wilders won big in the national elections. They’re fans of coal and gas, not so much wind and solar. Joy!

        Similar in in plenty of countries in Europe and the US.

        Fun. Fun. Fun.

      Humanity is acting like a 12 year old that was given an assignment 30 years ago to complete, and they still haven’t aged and they still haven’t done anything and now they’re panicking about trying to show anything that they’ve done in all that time.
