Any second now....

And just a reminder that the IPCC reports are always conservative because their first drafts are pruned by business backed government leaders. They also don't take into account natural feedback loops and whatnot. Things are much worse than the report is putting out.

This is a graph of their best case scenario. Massive co2 production drawdown and a reliance on non-existent capture technology to reach net-zero by 2050.
