Can you elaborate on the "hit the brakes immediately" or we're all going to die statement? What "Science" backs this claim up? Legit science please, not from agenda-laden website.

The IPCC report is what you‘re looking for! And since it‘s it‘s almost impossible to even reach the goal of 1,5 degrees, we should hit the breaks better sooner than later. It‘s not an „oopsie“ problem we would face otherwise. People are already dying.

No - Im not looking for anything, actually. I just would prefer that those that chest-thump about this stuff would walk the talk and take a "lead". But they refuse. What does "hit the brakes" mean? Are the rich going to also hit the brakes? Or is this all on us "little people" as usual?
